Dead End Street Lyrics - Lou Rawls - Lou Rawls

I was born in a city the called the 'Windy City' 

And they call it the 'Windy City' because of the 'Hawk'. All mighty Hawk 

Talking about Mr. Wind kind of mean around winter time 

I happen to live on a street that was a dead-end street 

There was nothing to block or buffer the wind, the elements 

Keep them from knocking my pad down, Jim I mean really socking it to me 

And the boiler would bust and the heat was gone 

I would have to get fully dressed before I could go the bed 

Put everything on but my goulashes cause they had buckles on them 

And my folks didn't play that said don't you be getting up in there with 

Buckles on them goulashes and tear up my bed clothes but I was fortunate 

As soon as I was big enough to get a job save me enough money to buy me a ticket I split 

I got myself together now so I'm going back there to see about it see if it's still the same 

I just wanted to tell you about it, you know it's all right

They say this is a big rich town I live in the poorest part 

I was raised on a dead-end street in a city without a heart 

I learned to fight before I was six only way I could get along 

But when you're raised on a dead-end street you have to be tough and strong 

Now all the guys are always getting in trouble that the way it's always been 

But when the odds are all against you how can you win 

I'm gonna push my way out of here ever thou I can't say when 

But I'm gonna get off of this dead-end street and I ain't never gonna coma back again 

I'm gonna push my way out of here ever thou I can't say when 

But I'm gonna get off of this dead-end street 

And I ain't never gonna come back to live here again 

Never, No I ain't gonna come back here to live on this dead-end street no more 

Cause I'm gonna get me a job, I'm gonna save my dough 

Get away from here you-all, I ain't gonna come back no more 

Not ever, dead-end street 

I tired of breaking my back gonna start using my mind
