Neighborhood

Funky beats, Barrow Street, walking with your dog
I see you, you see me, then we stop and talk
Later on, some café, thinking what you said
Children laugh, telling jokes, 'til their eyes are red

The people feel so good, yeah
Say boy, say girl
All in my neighborhood, yeah
Say boy, say girl

We got peace, love, monkey business
Gonna reach the very top
There'll be pride, hope, and Sunday mornings
All the things I'm thinking of

We could change the world, my love (the world, my love)
In the night while we are sleeping
The power's in my neighborhood

Liquor store, stop and shop, old folks sit outside
Restaurants and laundromats and she's still on my mind
April, May, June, July, August comes around
Pretty soon, a year's gone by and we're still hanging out

The people feel so good, yeah
Say boy, say girl
All in my neighborhood, yeah
Say boy, say girl

We got peace, love, and monkey business
Gonna reach the very top
There'll be pride, hope, and Sunday mornings
All the things I'm thinking of

We could change the world, my love (the world, my love)
In the night while we are sleeping
Now the rich get richer and the poor stay poor

And folks get restless if it don't change soon
But there's a sweet sensation, bad to good
Things get better in my neighborhood
Neighborhood, neighborhood

So burn all your little candle
Put your light into my head
There's a lone wolf, he's on the mountain
He's the friend you never had

We got peace, love, and monkey business
Gonna reach the very top
There'll be pride, hope, and Sunday mornings
All the things I'm thinking of

So come on down (come on)
Come on down (come on)
Come on down (come on)
Come on down (come on)
