Silver Street Lyrics

I moved out from the Bible Belt
And down to Silver Street
Victorian oasis in the afternoon
The place we always used to meet
The girls there, they're all dressed in powder blue
They're always crawling through my hair
Jodie, she's as pretty as your mother used to be
With her dark lantern stare.
You just don't know.
You just don't know.

Black velvet jacket and a hat of antique lace
She moved down to Silver Street
Kisses like rings of the purest uncut gold
I couldn't help but see her face
The girl with the leather in her shoes
She's always crawling through my hair
Jodie, she's as pretty as your mother used to be
Oh, as pretty as mother used to be.
You just don't know.
You just don't know.
I moved out from the Bible Belt
And down to Silver Street
Couldn't help but cry just to see her there
The place we always used to meet
The girls there, they're all dressed in powder blue
They're always crawling through my hair Jodie,
she's as pretty as your mother used to be
As pretty as mother used to be
Just as pretty as we used to be
We're just as pretty as we used to be
Just you and me.
I moved out from the Bible Belt
And down to Silver Street
