Lyrics
Downtown Baby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every time I look at you
Have to do a double take
'Cause you're a kaleidoscope
Of kristofferson, bob dylan and john wayne
Been swallowed by suburbia
It's got nothing left to give and I
Think that we both know
This isn't how we wanna live, oh no
And I've been dreamin'
And I need a change of scenery
Take me downtown baby, hit the concrete
Pull me close and kiss in the street
Downtown baby, downtown baby, yeah
Only you can take me higher than high
I just wanna live till I die
Downtown baby, downtown baby
Hey ay, ay
Hey ay, ay
I'm blinded by the buzzin' lights and adolescent appetites
I'm singing k-pop karaoke
Thanking God no one here knows me
Laughing on a late-night bus
Nightmares and angel dust
And I look at you and you know what
There's no one here but us
I've got a feeling
You're feeling like I'm feeling
Take me downtown baby, hit the concrete
Pull me close and kiss in the street
Downtown baby, downtown baby
Only you can take me higher than high
I just wanna live till I die
Downtown baby, downtown baby
Hey ay, ay (only you can take me higher)
Hey ay, ay
Hey ay, ay (only you can take me higher)
Hey ay, ay
I don't wanna wake up alone
We got nowhere else to go
So, let's go
Only you can take me higher
Downtown baby, hit the concrete
Pull me close and kiss in the street
Downtown baby, downtown baby
Hey ay, ay
Hey ay, ay
Only you can take me higher
Hey ay, ay
Hey ay, ay
