DOWNTOWN

Lyrics: Douglas E. Watts
Music: Jimmie L. Westley Jr
Performed by Naked Truth

(1st Verse)
WELL IT’S MORNING TIME ONCE MORE AGAIN
AND THE GRIN OF THE MOON
FADES TO A HALF SMILE
IM FULL OF HOPE AND IM FULL OF BURDEN
AS I PLUNGE OUT INTO THE DAY

(Chorus:)
IN THE STRANGEST OF WAYS
WE PASS ALONG THIS WAY
RATHER FRUITLESSLY
AND THE VALUE OF THE DOLLAR
DICTATES WHO’S GREEN WHO’S ENVY GREENEST THE MOST
TO ME MIT MAKES LESS SENSE THEN MONEY
AND THAT’S THE WAY I LOVE TO HAVE IT
IN THIS CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY WORLD OF DOWNTOWN


Break
DOWNTOWN, DOWNTOWN


(2nd Verse)
WELL I HOLD IN MY HEART A LOVE OF SIMPLE THINGS
A CARE FREE MOMENT HERE AND THERE
I BEEN WATCHIN AND LEARNIN THE WAYS OF THE TRADE
AND I RETURN TO MY HEART SOONER THEN THEY SUPPOSE

Chorus:
INTO AN OFFICE OF AWAITED TRUDGERY
SEEMS TO ME LIKE I ALREADY LIFE TIME TOIL
CIGARETTES MOURNIN COFFEE IS A MEAL
FIT FOR THESE SHAMELESS DEALERS
HERE IN DOWNTOWN DOWNTOWN

(Lead Break)

DOWNTOWN
ONCE MORE AGAIN

DOWNTOWN
IN THE GRIN OF THE MOON

DOWNTOWN
FIT FOR THESE SHAMLESS DEALERS HERE IN

DOWNTOWN
ONCE MORE AGAIN
