Out On The Streets — текст песни (Ringo Starr)

By Richard Starkey and Vini Poncia


I WOKE UP THIS EVENIN` AND MY HEAD WAS REELIN`
NOTHING WAS HAPPENIN`, I HAD NO FEELIN`
I KNEW THAT I HAD TO BE OUT ON THE STREETS
OUT ON THE STREET

GOT IN MY CAR, LOOKIN` FOR ACTION
BLEW RIGHT DOWN BROADWAY, GOT NO REACTION
TWO COPS WERE FOLLOWING ME OUT ON THE STREET
OUT ON THE STREET

GOT OUT OF MY CAR AND I STARTED WALKIN`
I MET SOME LADIES AND WE STARTED TALKIN`
THAT`S WHY I`M SO GLAD TO BE OUT ON THE STREET
OUT ON THE STREET

I`M SPENDING MY MONEY, TAKING MY CHANCES
GOING TO CLUBS, DOIN` NEW DANCES
WATCHIN` THE FIRE ON MY FEET OUT ON THE STREET
OUT ON THE STREET

WELL, NIGHT TIME IS FADIN`, I JUMPED OFF MY MOTOR
SOMEBODY TOLD ME TO TRY THE DAKOTA
THEY`RE JUST LIKE TWO PEOPLE YOU`LL MEET OUT ON THE STREET
OUT ON THE STREET

THEY`RE JUST LIKE VINI* AND ME
OUT ON THE STREET
WOAH! OUT ON THAT STREET!

*SPOKEN*
HEY, I WAS WALKIN` DOWN THE STREET AND YOU KNOW WHAT THIS GUY SAID
HE SAYS, "HEY MAN", HE SAYS "I WANT THAT WATCH!"
I SAID "WHAT? YOU WANT *THIS* WATCH?"
HE SAID "YEAH! I WANT THAT WATCH!"
I SAID "WELL, YOU WATCH THIS, CAUSE I`M GONNA STOMP ON YOUR F--KIN` HEAD!"
AND YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAID TO ME?
HE SAID, "HEY BABY, I`M GONNA STICK THIS KNIFE RIGHT UP YOUR NOSE!"
I SAID "WELL, I DON`T MIND AS THERE`S SOMETHING ON THE END OF IT...".
