Mean Streets

Dick Cooper

Broken white line
No rule of thumb
Smokin' headlines
Can make you turn numb

Gotta get tough on mean streets
The people are rough downtown
Gotta get tough on mean streets
There's never enough to go around

Someone's runnin' scared
Saw him with a gun
Man at the pawn shop
Never had such fun

Gotta get tough on mean streets
People are rough downtown
Gotta get tough on mean streets
There's never enough to go around

Lose a beat nowhere to sleep
I lost her in the heart of the city
Losin' streak flat on my feet
Oh, things just ain't looking so pretty, oooh

Neon signs
Drink up the night
Courage is fading
No one wants to fight

Gotta get tough on mean streets
People are rough downtown
Gotta get tough on mean streets
There's never enough to go around
Never enough to go around
