The 51st Street Blues

hey, 51st street, you were always there for me

you saw me on the ground

you saw me on my feet

you always took care

you never abandoned me

hey, 51st street, you were always around

even when i was down

you never moved out of town

you never put on a crown

you were never too good for me

hey, 51st street, even when she went away

i didn't know what to say

but you listened anyway

no matter how i acted

you would never talk back to me

and you know i

you know i love you in the rain

in the night

only you comprehend my pain

with the moonlight

falling softly on your face

yeah, tonight

you are my only means of grace

when i'm feeling beat

i just follow the signs

on 51st street

and you don't need to say a thing

because i saw all the signs

on 51st street
