Streets of Your Town Lyrics
[Chorus]
Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
Everyday I make my way
Through the streets of your town
[Verse 1]
And don't the sun look good today? (Shine)
But the rain is on its way (Shine)
Watch the butcher shine his knives (Shine)
And this town is full of battered wives
[Chorus]
Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
Everyday I make my way
Through the streets of your town
[Verse 2]
And I ride your river under the bridge (Shine)
And I take your boat out to the ridge (Shine)
'Cos I love that engine roar (Shine)
But I still don't know what I'm here for
[Chorus]
Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
Everyday I make my way
Through the streets of your town
[Bridge]
They shut it down
They closed it down
They shut it down
They pulled it down
[Chorus]
Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
Everyday I make my way
Through the streets of your town
Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
Everyday I make my way
Through the streets of your town
Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
Everyday I make my way
Through the streets of your town
Round and round, up and down
Through the streets of your town
