People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
Rent is due, crib is a pit
phone's cut off, TV's on the fritz
Neighbours are complaining, 'cause we play so late at night
Credit's over at the bar and the Union's back on strike
I paid my dues, I live by the line
Tired of wasting all my precious time
One step further leaves me further astray
But the Lord's gonna help me in a better way
Chorus
Mother Street gotta help me get back up on my feet
Mother Street gotta find me some fine people to meet
Seasons change, the sun is shining in the sky
the work I find can't pay my bills
and that's the reason why
I'm going back on the outside
it's better off that way
she's got so much just for living
and there ain't so much to pay
Chorus*2
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
Rent is due, crib is a pit
phone's cut off, TV's on the fritz
Neighbours are complaining, 'cause we play so late at night
Credit's over at the bar and the Union's back on strike
I paid my dues, I live by the line
Tired of wasting all my precious time
One step further leaves me further astray
But the Lord's gonna help me in a better way
Chorus
Mother Street gotta help me get back up on my feet
Mother Street gotta find me some fine people to meet
Seasons change, the sun is shining in the sky
the work I find can't pay my bills
and that's the reason why
I'm going back on the outside
it's better off that way
she's got so much just for living
and there ain't so much to pay
Chorus*2
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
You get a good feeling from the people you meet
People walkin' down the street
You get a good feeling
