[Verse 1]
I'm kicking off from centerfield
Question of being down for the game
The one-shot deal don't matter
The other one the same
Oh, my friend, I see you
Want you to come through, all right
And she's standing in the shadow
Where the streetlights all turn blue

[Verse 2]
She's leaving an American (Hey, hey)
Suitcase in her hand
Her brothers and her sisters
Are on Atlantic sand
She was screaming through the alleyway
I can hear her lonеly cry, so why can't you?
And her batteries arе corroded
And her hundred-watt bulb just blew (Now sing it like this)

[Verse 3]
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
She was screaming through the alleyway
I can hear her lonely cry, why can't you?
And her batteries are all corroded
And her hundred-watt bulb just blew
[Verse 4]
She used to hang out down at Miss Lucy
Every weekend they'd get loose
Yeah, it was different case of
Having taken too much juice
It was outside, oh Lord, it was outside
Just the nature of the person
Now all you got to remember
That after all, it's just show biz

[Verse 5]
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
We're just screaming through the alleyway
I can hear her lonely cry, why can't you?
And she's standing in the shadow
Canal Street lights all turn blue

[Outro]
And she's standing in the shadow
Canal Street lights turn baby blue
And she's standing in the shadow
Down where the streetlights all turn blue
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
