Down On the Lower East Side

Well the midnight's on Manhattan 11th street and all alone

Countin' cracks beneath my feat 'cause my head is hanging low

And the street lights all down b shining on the falling rain

Shadows dance across the street

Wind seems to whisper her name

But it's this tired old town another sleepless night

Keep me wandering around down on the lower east side

So lay a star up in heaven shining down from up above

And the city is unforgiving when you've got no one to love

But i'ts more and more these days I find I need a place to hide

And it's easy to get away when your down on the lower east side

Yeah it's easy to get away when your down on the lower east side
