Narrow streets
Houses all in rows
Front porch seats
Watchin' people go
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-ohhhhh wah-oh
And in between
Dundas and queen
Get off that strong
Spread the blankets on the lawn
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-ohhhhh wah-oh
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-ohhhhh
I think that we
Could do better if we weren't apart
I think that we couldn't find a better place to start
Than in this downtown neighborhood
Held together by nails and wood
Where the old folks take their time, I wanna make good time with you
And in the lane
Rusty garage doors
There's a hockey game
And that kid's freaking out 'cause he scored
Woah-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohhhhh, oh-oh-ohhhhh
Woah-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohhhhh
I think that we
Could do better if we weren't apart
I think that we couldn't find a better place to start
Than in this downtown neighborhood
Held together by nails and wood
Where the old folks take their time, I wanna make good time with you
I wanna climb the roof with you
I wanna walk the lane with you
