Lyrics
I took a walk across the brooklyn bridge The new graffiti says that life's a bitch And now I hear this bridge is falling down Someone will steal it before it hits the ground Now I wanna go out walking in my old neighborhood Where I was just a little girl and life was good But the boys are on the corner, gonna fuck with me I'm gonna keep on walking, they don't see
This is my town I was born and raised on these streets This is my town Oh yeah, my town
Too many people are on the street tonight It's way too hot someone's looking for a fight What a mess of faces in an endless sea I'm getting tired of all this energy I guess I could just pick it up and move outside of town And listen to the crickets when the sun goes down But then we couldn't hear them playing down at s.o.b.'s Where my friend lincoln can get us in for free
This is my town I grew up too fast on these streets Hey this is my town Oh yeah, my town
Tonight the rain is falling, falling down The lights outside keep changing, without a sound
Now lets just take a train down into chinatown Past the house of candles, you know they burned it down Tomorrow is the puerto rican day parade They'll be dancing in the streets Come to carry me away
Cause this is my town I was born and raised on these streets This is my town I'm walking down these mean streets It's a big bad town Hey yeah, this is my town
