Jackson Browne Boulevard
Down on the boulevard they take it hard They look at life with such disregard. They say it can't be won The way the game is run But if you choose to stay You wind up playing anyway It's OK You know the kid's in shock up and down the block The folks are home playing beat the clock Down at the Golden Cup They set the young ones up Under the neon lights Selling day for night It's alright Nobody rides for free Nobody gets it like they want it to be Nobody hands you any guarantee Nobody. The hearts are hard and the times are tough Down on the boulevard the night's enough Time passes slow between the storefronts' shadows and the streetlights glow Everybody walks right by like they're safe or something They don't know Nobody knows you Nobody owes you nothing Nobody shows you what they're thinking Nobody Hey hey baby Gotta watch the street keep your feet and be on guard. Make it pay baby It's only time on the boulevard.
