Well, I'm exiled on Main Street again
As the sun comes up over the Schuylkill River bridge
While the Clark Street hustlers are riding the bus downtown
I sit on the sidewalk till you come back around
I thought I saw Old Willy the other day
But those dreams of California took him away
It hasn't been the same round here since he's gone
Don't you wait too long before the dawn
Every little soul must shine
But if your light is gone then you just let it be
When it's all done, could you forgive me Tisbury?
I can see the Bedford Towers begin to fade
While the marching band plays "When The Levee Breaks"
Oh, tell me momma, can you say it isn't so?
Is there trouble with our lady of the snow?
Every little soul must shine
But if your light is gone then you just let it be
When it's all done, could you forgive me Tisbury?
You're exiled on Main Street
Can you feel the fire under your feet?
The freedom, the daylight
All your memories shattered in the moonlight
Nostalgia, it's unplanned
When you're playing in a rock and roll band
Every little soul must shine
But if your light is gone then you just let it be
When it's all done, could you forgive me Tisbury?
Every little soul must shine
But if your light is gone then you just let it be
When it's all done, could you forgive me Tisbury?
