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. Just 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 'll be great when you're - downtown No finer place for sure - downtown Everything's waiting for you - downtown. Don't hang around and let your problems surround you There are movies shows - downtown. Maybe you know some little places to go to where they never close- Downtown. Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova You'll be dancing with 'em 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 now Downtown... Downtown... Downtown... And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you Someone who is just like you And needs a gentle hand to guide them along. So maybe I'll see you there We can forget all our troubles Forget all our cares So go - downtown Things 'll be great when you're - downtown Don't wait a minute more - downtown Everything is waiting for you - Downtown Downtown Downtown Downtown.
