When you're alone, and life is making you lonely

 You can always go

 Downtown

 

 When you've got worries, all the noise and 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, and go

 Downtown -- things will be great when you're

 Downtown -- you'll find a place for sure

 Downtown -- everything's waiting for you

 

 

 Downtown .... downtown...

 

 

 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, and go

 Downtown -- where all the lights are bright

 Downtown -- waiting for you tonight

 Downtown -- you're gonna be all right now...

 

 

 Downtown...downtown...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, and go

 Downtown -- things will be great when you're

 Downtown -- don't wait a minute more

 Downtown -- everything's waiting for you...

 

 

 Downtown...downtown

 Downtown...downtown

 Downtown...downtown

 Downtown...downtown

 Downtown...downtown (fade)
