When you're alone and life is making you lonely You can always go downtown When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry Seems to help, I know downtown Listen to the music of the traffic in the city Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty How can you lose? The lights are much brighter there You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares So go downtown, things will be great when you're Downtown, no finer place for sure Downtown, everything's waiting for you Downtown Downtown Don't hang around and let your problems surround you There are movie shows, downtown Maybe you know some little places to go To where they never close, downtown Listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova You'll be dancing with him too before the night is over Happy again The lights are much brighter there You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares So go downtown where all the lights are bright Downtown, waiting for you tonight Downtown, you're gonna be all right Look downtown Downtown Downtown Downtown
