Easy Street Lyrics - And The Horse They Rode In On - Soul Asylum

Easy Street, on Easy Street 

On Easy Street, on Easy Street 

Did you hear the one about the friend of a friend 

Who tried to end it all? 

At the last moment, he picked up the phone 

And gave you a call 

You thought about letting it ring 

But you answered after all 

You answered after all 

You answered after all 

And there you were, put on the spot 

At the end of the other line 

For other questions that you never thought 

You'd ever have to answer to 

Who do you turn to when the ones 

You always turn to, go and turn on you 

It leaves you in the dark 

Feeling for a switch to turn it on again 

To turn it on again 

Turn it on again 

There are no easy answers 

The questions remain tough 

There's no shortcuts to Easy Street 

No corners you can cut 

Can you cut this? 

Can you cut this diamond in the rough? 

And it's good to see you alive 

Sign your will to survive 

A look into your heart before it sees its final hour 

Lived each day like there is no tomorrow 

Beyond this mess ahead there is a street 

So very hard to find 

Though I have got to lay my head down 

At this dead end so many times 

And if we ever get to Easy Street 

You can say with a smile 

I came just for the ride 

Easy Street, on Easy Street 

On Easy Street, on Easy Street 

Easy Street, on Easy Street 

On Easy Street, on Easy Street 

Easy Street, on Easy Street 

On Easy Street, on Easy Street
