Downtown Life (Downtown Radio Remix)

Do it downtown in from the outside
Yeah, find the scene and work it brother
Moving through sound
City's like wild life
Overgrown and living undercover
Wound up so tight

We love the downtown life (downtown life, baby)
Driftin' through the day
Waiting for the night, oh (oh)
Downtown life, it feels so right (and I feel so right)
It keeps me hangin' on (hangin' on)

So listen now
Velvet Lou was a neighbor of mine
Now he walks the dog in Jersey, brother
Yuppies in black doin' white-collar crime
They scared away the local color
But they can't steal the night

We love the downtown life (downtown life, baby)
Driftin' through the day
Waiting for the night, oh (oh)
Downtown life, it feels so right (and I feel so right)
It keeps me hangin' on (hangin' on)

Downtown life (oh, you downtown life)
Driftin' through the day
Waiting for the night to come (waiting for the night to come)
Downtown life, it feels so right (feels so right)
It keeps me hangin' on (hangin' on)

My baby knows she's got to go for this kind of life
'Cause city love can't stand to see the sunlight
Dawn patrol better leave me alone
'Cause I can only take it for so long
Going down isn't hard to do
The king of clubs and queen of hearts fall too
She says, "If you believe this is only a lonely time
Stay at home, boys, the blues are lost on you"
Ain't it true

We love the downtown life (downtown life, baby)
Driftin' through the day
Waiting for the night, oh (I've been waitin' for the night to come)
Downtown life, it feels so right (it feels so right)
It keeps me hangin' on (oh)

Downtown life (downtown life, baby)
Drifting through the night
Waiting for the night to come (to come)
Downtown life, it feels so right (and it feels so right)
It keeps me hangin' on (oh)

(Downtown life)
Downtown life
It keeps me hangin' on (hangin', hanging on downtown life)
Downtown life
It keeps me hangin' (hangin' on)

(You want downtown life)
Drifting through the day
Waiting for the night
(Drifting, waiting, hangin' on, hangin' on downtown life)

Downtown life
It keeps me hangin' (get on the downtown life, hangin' on, hangin' on)
Drifting through the night
Waiting for the night to come (hangin' on to downtown life, hangin' on)
Downtown life
It keeps me hangin' on (hangin' on to downtown life)
Drifting through the day
Waiting for the night
(Drifting, waiting, hangin')
