When you're alone
And life is making you lonely
You can always go downtown
When you've got worries
All the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtown
Just listen to the music
Of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk
Where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your
Troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown
Things will be great
When you're downtown
No finer place for sure, downtown
Everything's waiting for you
Don't hang around and
Let your problems surround you
There are movie shows downtown
Maybe you know
Some little places to go to
Where they never close downtown
Just listen to the rhythm
Of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with 'em
Too before the night is over
Happy again
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your
Troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown
Where all the lights
Are bright, downtown
Waiting for you tonight, downtown
You're gonna be
Alright now
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
And you may find somebody
Kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like
You and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along
So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles
Forget all our cares
So go downtown
Things will be great
When you're downtown
Don't wait a minute more, downtown
Everything is waiting
For you, downtown
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
