The Street Only Knew Your Name Lyrics

Your street, rich street or poor Used to always be sure, on your street There's a place in your heart and you know from the start Can't be complete outside of the street
Keep moving on through the joy and the pain Sometimes you got to look back to the street again Would you prefer all those castles in Spain Or the view of the street from your window pane
And you walked around in the heart of town Listening for that sound And the street only knew your name Well the street only knew your name, your name
Well Walter and John, Katie and Ron Used to hang out by the corner lamp light Get together and sing some songs Like rhythm and blues you make me feel alright
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/the-street-only-knew-your-name-lyrics-van-morrison.html ] That were long before fortune and fame Nothing to lose and so much to gain Everyone knew who everyone was And they knew it because of the street
And you walk around in the heart of town Listening for that sound While the street only knew your name Well the street only knew your name, oh, your name
You walk around in the heart of town Listening for that sound While all the street only knew your name The street only knew your name
Sing it, be-bop-a-lula Who slapped John? Well the street only knew your name
