Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out - Live

(The Miami Horns ladies and gentlemen)

Teardrops on the city
Bad Scooter searching for his groove
Seem like the whole world's walking pretty
You can't find the room to move
Everybody better move over, that's all
I'm running on the bad side
With my back to the wall

Tenth Avenue freeze-out
Say it, say it again
Tenth Avenue freeze-out

I was stranded in the jungle
Taking all the heat they were giving
Yeah, nah!
The night is dark but the sidewalk's bright
Lined with the light of the living

From a tenement window a transistor blasts
Turn around the corner things got real quiet real fast
She hit me with the

Tenth Avenue freeze-out
Say it, say it again
Tenth Avenue freeze-out

But I'm all alone, I'm all alone
Kid, you better get the picture
But I'm on my own, I'm on my own
And I can't go home

Well now this is the important part
They made that change uptown
And the Big Man joined the band
From the coastline to the city
The little pretties raise their hands
I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh
When Scooter and the Big Man bust this city in half

Tenth Avenue freeze-out (Say it, say it again)
Tenth Avenue freeze-out (Say it, say it again)
Tenth Avenue freeze-out (Say it one more time)
Tenth Avenue freeze-out (Everybody's on my mind)
Tenth Avenue freeze-out (Oh, just one time)
Tenth Avenue freeze-out (Everybody's on my mind)
Tenth Avenue freeze-out (Say it, say it again)
Tenth Avenue freeze-out
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

Oh, yeah!
It's all right now
