Tony Christie - Avenues & Alleyways lyrics

Sleep like a baby, 

my little lady, 

Dream till the sunrise 

creeps into your eyes 

Dream till the sunrise 

Turns on the day. 

In the Avenues and Alleyways 

while you sleep there's a whole world coming alive 

Able and his brother, fighting one another 

in and out of every dive 

The Avenues and Alleyways 

where the strong and the quick alone can survive 

Look around the jungle 

see the rough and tumble 

Listen to a squealer cry 

Then a little later 

in the morning paper 

Read about the way he died. 

Wake up my pretty 

Go to the city 

Stay through the daytime 

safe in the sunshine 

stay till the daytime 

turns into night. 

In the Avenues and Alleyways 

Where a mans gotta work out which side he's on 

any way he chooses 

chances are he loses 

no one gets to live too long 

the avenues and alleyways 

Where the soul of a man is easy to buy 

everybody's wheeling 

everybody's steeling 

all the low are living high 

Every city's got em 

can we ever stop em 

some of us are gonna try.
