Downtown     (Cauty/Drummond/Hatch)

 

When you're alone and life is making you lonely you can always go

Downtown

When you've got worries all the noise and the hurries seems to help I know

Downtown

 

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city

Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty

How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there

You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares, so go

 

Downtown

Things'll be great when you're     Downtown

No finer place for sure     Downtown

Everything's waiting for you

Downtown

 

Don't hang around and let your problems surround you

There are movie shows

Downtown

Maybe you know some little places to go to where they never close

Downtown

Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova

You'll be dancing with them too before the night is over

Happy again

The lights are much brighter there

You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares, so go

 

Downtown

Where all the lights are bright       Downtown

Waiting for you tonight     Downtown

You're gonna be alright now

Downtown

(key change) downtown...Downtown

 

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you

Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to guide them along

 

So maybe I'll see you there

We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares, so go

 

Downtown

Things'll be great when you're     Downtown

Don't wait a minute more                Downtown

Everything's waiting for you

Downtown downtown downtown downtown
