Downtown Lyrics - Jackson Browne

Downtown people gotta work a little harder working downtown 

Downtown they got to think a little quicker 'cause they're downtown 

Downtown the breaks are harder 

Downtown the thieves are smarter 

I've got this place I'm renting 

It cost me next to nothing downtown 

Nobody comes around telling me I gotta turn the sound down 

Broadway -- down on the corner 

The bible screamer, the plasma donor 

Buses, carhorns, ghetto blasters 

The shouts and cries of the human disasters 

It's all music 

It's all music 

Downtown 

It's all music 

It's all music

I feel alright when I'm downtown 

My feet are light when I'm downtown 

I cast my hopes on the human tide 

I place my bet and let it ride 

I'm open wide when I'm downtown 

Downtown there's every kind of people walkin' round downtown 

Downtown there's every language, every human sound downtown 

Downtown the nights are longer 

Downtown the sights are stronger 

Downtown wandering all around downtown 

It's all music 

Eight blocks south of city hall 

The rats run free and the winos crawl 

Darkness falls on the vast machine 

Where the future stalks the American dream

I feel alright when I'm downtown 

My head feels light when I'm downtown 

It's all in sight when I'm downtown 

I feel alright when I'm downtown
