Down on Easy Street

[Verse 1]

Guess you heard I'm doing well

Struck it rich, to hear some folks tell

But I'm still the same old me

Down on Easy Street

[Verse 2]

You give your all to find that road

And you lose touch with some people as you go

Promises are hard to keep

Down on Easy Street

[Pre-Chorus]

But when I lay down, and you're not there

Girl, I wish I was anywhere

[Chorus]

But in this world where the telephone is

All I touch when I'm alone

And no one ever really knows the man inside of me

Up here in this lonely room

Just a-sipping wine and a-missing you

Girl, I've got everything but what I need

And that's why I'm down

Down on Easy Street

[Verse 3]

Someone told me you moved on

Well, who could blame you with me so off and gone

But do you ever think of me

Down on Easy Street?

[Pre-Chorus]

If you're out this way, some week, some year

Girl, you'll still find me waiting here

[Chorus]

But in this world where the telephone is

All I touch when I'm alone

And no one ever really knows the man inside of me

Up here in this lonely room

Just a-sipping wine and a-missing you

Girl, I've got everything but what I need

And that's why I'm down

In this world where the telephone is

All I touch when I'm alone

And no one ever really knows the man inside of me

Up here in this lonely room

Just a-sipping wine and a-missing you

Girl, I've got everything but what I need

And that's why I'm down

Down on Easy Street

Down on Easy Street

Down on Easy Street

[Outro]

Guess you heard I'm doing well
