Down In The Bowery Lyrics - Street Songs Of Love - Alejandro Escovedo

Everybody's got to dance 

With the blues sometimes 

Everybody's got feel some things 

They don't want to feel sometimes 

I'd buy you a smile in a minute 

But would you wear it? 

If I had one moment in time 

Would you com down and share it? 

I want to see you out on the street 

Makin' a scene for everybody 

I want to hear your voice up above 

The crowd and the noise 

Down in the Bowery 

I hope you live long enough to forget 

Half the stuff they taught you 

When it's all said and done I hope 

You've got your own set of rules 

To hang on to 

I'd buy you a smile in a minute 

But would you wear it? 

If I had one moment of time 

Would you come down and share it? 

I want to see you out on the street 

Makin' a scene for everybody 

I want to hear your voice up above 

The crowd and the noise 

Down in the Bowery 

I hope you live long enough to forget 

Half the stuff they taught you 

When it's all said and done I hope 

You've got your own set of rules 

To hang on to 

I'd buy you a smile in a minute 

But would you wear it? 

If I had one moment of time 

Would you come down and share it? 

I want to see you out on the street 

Makin' a scene for everybody 

I want to hear your voice up above 

The crowd and the noise 

Down in the Bowery
