Artist/Band: Joe Jackson
Lyrics for Song: Goin' Downtown
Lyrics for Album: Laughter & Lust [1991]



I could cool out, I could hang loose

I could lay my head back in this comfortable noose

I could watch the paint dry on these rented walls

Or I could run wild with the first wild thing who calls



Goin' downtown, goin' downtown

Goin' downtown to stand 'round and stare

And put people down for not bein' there

Goin' downtown and I'll see you there



But I saw you laugh at that girl havin' fun

To show some emotion, just isn't done

You can look but don't touch, that's as far as it goes

You're only as good as the cut of your clothes



Goin' downtown, goin' downtown

Goin' downtown to stand 'round and stare

And put people down for not bein' there

Goin' downtown and I'll see you there



Goin' downtown to stand 'round and stare

And put people down for not bein' there

Goin' downtown and I'll see you there



Goin' downtown, goin' downtown

Goin' downtown, goin' downtown

Downtown, goin' downtown
