People on the street need a place to go. People on the street need a place to go. Walkin' with the beat if it's not too slow. Walkin' with the beat if it's not too slow. When the night's dark shadow falls. On the sidewalk scenes and the concrete canyon walls.. People on the street need a place to go. People on the street need a place to go.. Walkin' through the night up and down the avenue. Lookin' for a place. A place to go. A place to go.. There's a muffled scream from the alley scene. From the alley scene comes a muffled scream. And the siren wails while the system fails. In the steaming heat people walk in the street. People can't run and hide. If you want to feel good then you gotta feel good inside.. People on the street need a place to go. People on the street need a place to go.. Rising through the grates come the fumes of industry. Floating to the sky. Keep walkin' with the beat walkin' with the beat. Keep walkin' with the beat walkin' with the beat. Keep walkin' with the beat walkin' with the beat. When the night's dark shadow falls. On the sidewalk scenes and the concrete canyon walls.. People on the street need a place to go. People on the street need a place to go..
