John Mellencamp Sidewalk and Streetlights song lyrics

Homicide on the edge of town, and no one said it be easy

Sure has its ups and downs, and Garfield is laughing

Sitting in a dark room, making love with Sylvannia

No so called friends around, cigarettes and champagne

Gonna make me a big star, oh haven't you heard yet

Don't know how its going to go, too young to tell

And if its just my name, well hell I can change it

And if its for the fame, I guess I better grab it fast

But its just a dangerous game, that you're playing, oow

And you play it so well, so lets play it again

Sidewalks and Streetlights, sure make a pretty picture

Strangers in the night, are you going my way

You can drop me off at the corner, I can walk the rest of the way

Its not that far to the nearest star

And if its for the money, hey why can't I have it

And if its for the glory, I guess I better grab it fast

But its just a dangerous game, that you're playing, oow

And you play it so well, so lets play it again, oow

Lets play it again
