歌曲歌詞
Alarm goes off at seven
And you start up town
You put in your eight hours
For the powers
That have always been
Sing it child
'Til it's five pm
Then you go
Downtown
Where the folks are broke You go
Downtown
Where your life's a joke you go
Downtown
Where you buy a token you go
Home to Skid Row
Home to Skid Row
Yes you go
Downtown
Where the cabs don't stop
Downtown
Where the food is slop
Downtown
Where the hop heads flop in the snow
Down on Skid Row
Uptown you cater to a million jerks
Uptown you're messengers and mailroom clerks
Eating all your lunches at the hot dog carts
The bosses take your money and they break your hearts
Uptown you cater to a million whores
You disinfect terrazzo on their bathroom floors
Morning's tribulation afternoon's a curse
And five o'clock is even worse
That's when you go
Downtown
Where the guys are drips
Downtown
Where they rip your slips
Downtown
Where relationships are no go
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Down on Skid Row
Poor all my life I've always been poor
I keep askin' God what I'm for
And he tells me Gee I'm not sure
Sweep that floor kid
Oh I started life as an orphan
A child of the street here on Skid
Row he took me in gave me shelter
A bed crust of bread and a job
Treats me like dirt calls me a slob
Which I am
So I live
Downtown
That's your home address you live
Downtown
When your life's a mess you live
Downtown
Where depression's just status quo
Down on Skid Row
Someone show me a way to get outta here
'Cause I constantly pray I'll get outta here
Please won't somebody say I'll get outta here
Someone gimmie my shot or I'll rot here
Downtown
Show me how and I will I'll get outta here
Downtown
I'll start climbin' up hill and get outta here
Downtown
Someone tell me I still could get outta here
Someone tell lady luck that I'm stuck here
Downtown
Gee it sure would be swell to get outta here
Bid the gutter farewell and get outta here
I'd move heaven and hell to get outta Skid
I'd do I don't know what to get outta Skid
But a hell of a lot to get outta Skid
People tell me there's not a way outta Skid
But believe me I gotta get outta Skid
Row
