Hall & Oates Downtown Life
Music by D. Hall, J. Oates, R. Iantosca Lyrics by D. Hall, J. Oates, S. Allen Ah yeah, Oh, oh, yeah No doubt Do it downtown in from the outside Yeah, find the scene & work it brother Moving thru sound City's like wild life All overgrown & living undercover And wound up so tight (We love the Downtown Life) Downtime life baby (Driftin' thru the day waiting for the nite, oh oh) Oh (Downtown Life) (it feels so right) Feels so right (It keeps me hangin' on, hangin' on) So listen now Velvet Lou was a neighbor of mine Now he walks the dog in Jersey, Brother Yuppies in black with the white collar crime They scared away the local color But they can't steal the nite (We love the Downtown Life) Downtown life baby (Driftin' thru the day waiting for the nite, oh oh) Oh (Downtown Life it feels so right) Feels so right (It keeps me hangin' on) on (Downtown Life) Oh you'll be downtown life baby (Drifting thru the day waiting for the nite to come) Waiting for the nite to come (Downtown Life it feels so right) (It keeps me hangin' on) Hangin' hangin' hangin' hangin' hangin' on My baby knows she's got to go for this kind of life `Cause city life can't stand to see the sunlite Dawn patrol better leave me alone `Cause I can only take it for so long Going down isn't hard to do The King of Clubs, and the Queen of Hearts fall too She says, "If you believe this is only a lonely time, Stay at home boy the blues are lost on you" Ain't it true (We love the Downtown Life) Downtown life baby (Drifting thru the day waiting for the nite, oh) We're waiting for the night to fall (Downtown Life it feels so right) It feels so right (It keeps me hangin' on) on (Downtown Life) Downtown life baby (Drifting thru the day waiting for the nite to come) To come (Downtown Life) And it feels and it feels so right (And it feels so right) (It keeps me hangin') oh Downtown Life (Downtown Life it keeps me hangin' on) Hangin' hangin' on to Downtown Life (Downtown Life it keeps me hangin') Hangin' on (Downtown Life) You want the Downtown Life (Drifting thru the day waiting for the night) Drifting, waiting, hangin' on hangin' on to Downtown Life (Downtown Life it keeps me hangin') You want the Downtown Life (Downtown Life) Hangin' on hangin' on (Drifting thru the nite waiting for the night) Hangin' on to Downtown Life (Downtown Life it keeps me hangin') Hangin' on to Downtown Life
