Song title: Lonely night in the park


Lonely night in the park

Johnny’s got an angel dancing topless at night
Down in toyland
Where the blondies and the supergirls
Hopin’ to say look who’s talking
And if you’re looking for someone to steal your heart
Someone tough enough to take it
Someone to keep it or to tear it apart
Someone to love you, someone to fake it
Lonely night in the park
Oh, lonely night in the park
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Oh, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night in the park
Some dudes at the door gave her trouble
There’s a lady at the bar in a trance
Slipped off your stool and you step through the rubble
This is your chance you’re gonna take it
If she can’t dance she can make it
She takes off her shoes and runs down the beach
Oh, she’s as soft as the night
You fall as she crawls within your reach
You’re joggin’ down on the sand and try to make it all right
Ohhh
Lonely night in the park
Oh, lonely night in the park
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night in the park
And the boardwalk is so quiet at three-in-the-morning
Lonely wind beams life into ain’t very sweet

Sunlight in the distance seems so boring
We turn ravage with no secrets to reveal
Oh, watch yourself know
Well the bars closed down
And the lonesome Armies they run for cover
The lost boys and their pickups
Man they hate each other
And you’re drinking ‘neath the pier with Kid Blue
Ah, kid gets sick and throws up on your shoes
And you’re thinking of making it home
But your mom can’t see you like this all alone
You’re walking down the street and no one knows your name
Standing on the corner lookin’ for the light to change
Sittin’ on the ticket line by line, line by line
They’ve got nothing left but time
Lonely night in the park
Lonely night in the park
Lonely night in the park
Lonely, lonely night
Hey little stranger, whatcha doin’ tonight?
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night

Notes: Born to run outtake, curiously basically uncirculated until SIRIUS radious, in 2005, aired it through the E STREET CHANNEL…..
Thanks to mike for the lyrics.
