Funky beats, Barrow Street

Walking with your dog

I see you, You see me

Then we stop and talk

 

Later on, some cafe

Thinking what you said

Children laugh, telling jokes

Till their eyes are red



 

The people feel so good

Say boy, say girl



All in my neighborhood

Say boy, say girl





We got peace,

love and monkey business

Gonna reach the very top



There'll be pride,

hope and Sunday mornings

All the things I'm thinking of



We could change the world

In the night while we are sleeping

The Power's in my neighborhood





Liquor stores, stop and shop

Old folks sit outside

Restaurants - Laundromats

She's still on my mind



April, May, June, July

August comes around

Pretty soon, a years gone by

And we're still hanging out



 

The people feel so good

Say boy, say girl



All in my neighborhood

Say boy, say girl





We got peace,

love and monkey business

Gonna reach the very top



There'll be pride,

hope and Sunday mornings

All the things I'm thinking of



We could change the world

In the night while we are sleeping





Now the rich get richer

and the poor stay poor

and folks get restless

If it don't change soon

 

But there's a sweet sensation

Turnin bad to good

and things get better

In my neighborhood



neighborhood...

neighborhood...





So burn on,

you little candle

put your light into my head



There's a lone wolf,

on the mountain 

he's the friend you never had



We got peace, 

love and monkey business

Gonna reach the very top



There'll be pride, 

hope and Sunday mornings

all the things I'm thinking of





So, come on down



come on down

come on down

come on down
