down on the street - b.j. thomas lyrics
i said to reverend wiley why are you so wild
he said, my mother was the topless dancer
and i was the only child
i said, my friend that is no reason
for you to be such a freak
’twas then he punched me in the mouth
and said, turn the other cheek
down on the street, down on the street
i said oh, my home was down on the street
i said to crazy jerry
why’s that mirror on your head
so i can see myself walking down the street
that’s exactly what the man said
he asked me for a place to spend the winter
cause he was in need of a rest
i said if you want to sleep in the echo chamber
then you can be my guest
down on the street, down on the street
i said oh, my home was down on the street
in walked brother neil
and he stroked his beardless chin;
he said, if the yellows and whites don’t get you
the reds will do you in
i said, have you tried freon gas
it will make you feel like a prince;
he headed for the nearest refrigerator
and we haven’t seen him since
down on the street, down on the street
i said oh, my home was down on the street
