There's a place 
I know called 
Swing Street 
Where you can really feel the heartbeat 
After working hard til sundown 
The city comes alive 
High up, low down, down on 
Swing Street 
Gypsy jazzmen tickling my feet 
Jive and music, love and money 
There's enough to get you high 
Sidewalk preachers hustling bibles 
Longing for one more revival 
There's a truth in all these dreamers 
If you read between the lines 
Well, it's all right watching the world come together 
A real life movie that goes on forever 
Take your chances and pull on the lever 
Down on Swing 
Street Down on 
Swing Street 
Morning comes, that alarm clock screaming 
Coat and tie, and wheeling, dealing 
I wish that 
I could be back on 
Swing Street 
Watching life roll by 
Everyone looks for romance 
Living out of magazines 
But there's still one place 
Where you don't have to fake it 
Down on Swing 
Street Down on 
Swing Street
