Dead End Street
Lyricist:David Peverett
Well, I was raised on a back street Time's were tough, but kind of bittersweet Left school when I was still a child Hit the streets and started running wild
Hanging out in the neighborhood People said they're up to no good Never thought I'd ever make it through Hey boy, what you gonna do?
Crosstown traffic, sirens wailing, screaming in my ear It's got me on the run, gotta move on out of here
I'm on a dead end street, on a dead end street Well, it's got me beat, on a dead end street I can't go no further, won't somebody rescue me? From this dead end street, oh yeah
They still talk about the big fight On the backstreet at midnight Everybody heard the gunfire Saw him dragged into the Black Maria Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Now, my best friend is doing time He's committed to a life of crime Got a feeling, I'll be next in line I wonder how can I get out in time?
I stepped into a movie, this can't be reality If I wasn't so lucky, I wonder where I'd be?
I'm on a dead end street, on a dead end street Well, it's got me beat, on a dead end street I can't go no further, won't somebody rescue me? From this dead end street, oh yeah
Crosstown traffic, sirens wailing, screaming in my ear It's got me on the run, gotta move on outta here
I'm on a dead end street, on a dead end street Well, it's got me beat, on a dead end street It's got me walking, it's got me talking I'm on a dead end street, I'm on a dead end street
