Street Walkin'
Urban Tales: Dan Auerbach's Street Walkin' Chronicles
Lyrics
You know that time I said I had a job
You remember the occasion when I claimed to have a job.
And the bartender looked over at you and he gave a nod
The bartender acknowledged you with a nod when I made that statement.
The rain was hard and the ghosts were talkin'
The rain was heavy, and there was a sense of mysterious conversations among the ghosts.
My mind was gone I was,
My mental state was disturbed, and I found myself engaged in
Streetwalkin'
Streetwalking.
Kids with looks have a better chance
Those with attractive appearances have a better chance of success,
Of making it to that special dance
especially in reaching a significant social event like a dance.
You're up to bat and the infield is stalkin'
It's your turn to face challenges, and the competition is intense in the field.
My mind is gone I am,
My mind is troubled, and I am
Streetwalkin'
Streetwalking.
Beggin' bums soda pop
Begging beggars for soda pop,
Yankee tickets, bottle tops
Yankee tickets, and collecting bottle tops.
Mini skirts,magazines
Observing mini skirts and reading magazines,
Out on the street it's a living dream
living a dream out on the street.
I came correct on my secret lives
I honestly revealed details about my hidden or private lives.
I spoke the truth darlin' I looked into your eyes
I spoke the truth, my dear, and I looked directly into your eyes.
You got uptight and onlookers started gawkin'
You became tense, and people around us began staring.
The moon is high I am,
The moon is in the sky, and I find myself
Streetwalkin'
Streetwalking.
