Streets Of Paradise

From a backwater town in Ohio
All the way down to New Orleans
Hiding deep in the bayou
Waiting on a Northbound river queen

For too many years now
I've been the devil's own
In a midnight rage
I take the streets alone

Living in the shadows
Hiding in the shadows of night, wounded in the shadows
Down on the streets, down on the streets, down on the streets of paradise

Walking around there was a wound in my head
For many long days I was left there for dead
So many miles from the borderline
Only half a man down on the streets tonight

Living in the shadows, hiding in the shadows of night
Hiding in the shadows of night, wounded in the shadows
Wounded in the shadows, lying in the shadows
Down on the streets, down on the streets, down on the streets of paradise

Living in the shadows, hiding in the shadows of night
Hiding in the shadows of night, wounded in the shadows
Wounded in the shadows, lying in the shadows
Down on the streets, down on the streets, down on the streets of paradise
