Swing Street lyrics
by Bruce Hornsby
B. r. hornsbyI heard you say that tonight's the nightYou say there's a party going onI'm in the door lik an old 78 sideAnd I hear 'em out hitting on a coleman songMy friend john with a mirror and spoonGot a belt and a mainline sceneA couple getting off in the back roomSomeone's collecting money for the friend in needSounds like a good time, a ball to meSounds like a place I'd like to beTheres a little crowd you're gonna want to meetOh they got a thing going on swing streetNice old man in the corner boothMaking time with jive-time stuShe makes her sting 'neath the table blueSays she's an actor but she's hookingAs a sideline tooOh sounds like a good time, a ball to meSounds like a place I'd like to beEverybody rolls when it's time to meetOh they got a thing going on swing streetGot a good thing going down swing streetYou say there's nothing but bums around hereListen to the sound of the cymbal so clearCutting contest on the standSomebody's trying to blow you awayWhat makes him swing harder than you doOh better hit the woodshed for ninety daysOh sounds like a good time, a ball to meSounds like a place I'd like to beTheres a little crowd you're gonna want to meetOh they got a thing going on swing streetGot a good thing going down swing streetGot a good thing going down swing streetGot a thing going on on swing streetGot a thing going onGot a thing going on on swing street
