Skid Row (Downtown)
WOMAN]
Alarm goes off at seven
And you start uptown.
You put in your eight hours
For the powers that have always been.
Till it's five P.M.
Then You go
Downtown
Where the folks are broke.
Downtown
Where your life's a joke.
Downtown
When you buy your token,
you go
Home to skid row.
Yes, you go
Downtown
Where the cabs don't stop
Downtown
Where the food is slop
Downtown
Where the hop-heads flop
in the snow
Down on Skid Row
Uptown you cater to a million jerks.
Uptown you're messengers and
mailroom clerks
eating all your lunches at the
hot dog carts.
The bosses take your money
And they break your hearts.
Uptown you cater to a million whores.
You disinfect terrazzo on their
bathroom floors.
Your morning's tribulation,
afternoon's a curse
And five o'clock is even worse
That's when you go
Downtown
Where the guys are drips.
Downtown
Where they rip your slips.
Downtown
Where relationships are no go.
Down on skid row!
Poor! All my life I've always been poor.

I keep asking God what I'm for,
and he tells me 'Gee, I'm not sure
sweep that floor, kid.'
Oh, I started life as an orphan,
a child of the street
Here on skid row.
He took me in, gave me shelter, a bed,
Crust of bread and a job
Treats me like dirt, calls me a slob,
Which I am.
So I live
Downtown
That's your home address.
Ya live
Downtown
When your life's a mess.
Ya live
Downtown
Where depressions' jes'
Status Quo.
Down on skid row
Someone show me a way to get
outa here,
'cause I constantly pray I'll get
outa here
Please, won't somebody say I'll get
outa here.
Someone gimme my shot or I'll
rot here.
Downtown
Show me how and I will, I'll get outta here.
Downtown
I'll start climbing up hill and get outta here.
Downtown
Someone tell me I still could get outta here.
Downtown
Someone tell lady luck that I'm stuck here.
Downtown
Gee it sure would be swell to get outta here.
Downtown
Bid the gutter farewell and get outta here.
Downtown
I'd move heaven and he'll to get outta skid.
Downtown
I'd do I dunno what to get outa skid
Downtown
But a hell of a lot to get outa skid
Downtown
People tell me there's not a way outa skid
Downtown
But believe me I gotta get outa skid
Row!
