I remember standin' on the
corner at midnight
Tryin' to get my courage up
There was this
long lovely dancer
in a little club downtown
I loved to watch her
do her stuff
Through the long lonely nights
She filled my sleep
Her body softly swaying
to that smoky beat
Down on Main Street
Down on Main Street
In the pool hall
The hustlers and the losers
'Used to watch 'em
through the glass
Well I'd stand outside at
closin' time
Just to watch her
walk on past
Unlike all the other ladies
She looked so
young and sweet
As she made her way along
down that empty street
Down on Main Street
Down on Main Street
Oo oo oo oo oo
Sometimes even now
When I'm feeling
lonely and beat
I drift back in time
And I find my feet
Down on Main Street
Down on Main Street
Down on Main Street
Down on Main Street
Down on Main Street
Down on Main Street
