Current song lyrics
Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street, <br />Well, it sure don't seem like it's been twenty years, <br />Since I went walking down this lonely street <br />And the smell of perfumed ladies filled the air <br /><br />This street ain't got no name, dead end is in the river, <br />And I lived where I hated life day by day, <br />There wasn't nothing that I could do to shake a cold night shiver, <br />'Cause to move up Lonely Street you had to have some say <br /><br />Gambling is bad luck down on Lonely Street <br />And it sure ain't no place to be when a man gets sore <br />You know I killed a man and I paid all I can, <br />With twenty years on a chain gang, <br />For the flesh and the blood on that jailhouse floor <br /><br />Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street <br />I get caught up in a dream that won't let me go <br />And as the bright lights flash up and down this lonely street <br />My mind rolls back the years a long time ago <br /><br />I see my baby stumblin' around with tears in her eyes <br />And as I reach out for her she falls on the floor <br />She mumbles through bloody lips about a black man, robber, raper, <br />And in my gut I know I got one to score <br /><br />I need somebody...oh, I needed...<br /><br />The word was comin' down, down on Lonely Street <br />That a black man was a dead man if he crossed my trail <br />Every night I'd walk up and down this Lonely Street <br />I get stinkin' drunk, and always in jail, <br />One night they threw me in with a man they called the mangler <br />He was caught on the street makin' some old whore, <br />I remember he was quite proud of that, <br />So half-crazed I shot him, <br />And I cried in the blood on that jailhouse floor<br />Oh,I don't wanna know more.
