Out In The Streets - 1974 Session

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't do the wild things that he did before

Ooh-ooh-ooh, he used to act bad
He used to but he quit it
It makes me so sad
I know that he did it for me (yes, he did)
And I can see
His heart, his heart is out in the street

He don't comb his hair like he did before
He don't wear those dirty old black boots no more

Ooh-ooh-ooh, but he's not the same
There's something 'bout his kisses
That tells me he's changed
I know there's something missing inside (ooh-ah)
Something died
His heart, his heart is out in the streets

He grew up on the side walk
Street lights shining above
He grew up with no one to love

He grew up on the side walk
He grew up running free
He grew up and then he met me

He don't hang around with the gang no more
Gee, he doesn't smile like he did before

Ooh-ooh-ooh, I wish I didn't care
I wish I'd never met him
They're waiting out there
So I got to set him free (wish I didn't care)
He's got to be (out in the street)
His heart, his heart is out in the street

He don't hang around with the gang no more (he's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more (he's out in the street)
He don't hang around
