I remember standin on the corner at midnight Tryin to get my courage up There was this long lovely dancer in a little club downtown Loved to watch her do her stuff Through the long lonely nights She filled my sleep Her body softly swayin To that smokey beat Down on mainstreet Down on mainstreet And the poolhalls, the hustlers, and the losers Used to watch em through the glass Well I'd stand outside at closin time Just to watch her walk on past Unlike all the other ladies She looked so young and sweet As she made her alone down that empty street Down on mainstreet Down on mainstreet OoooohSometimes even now, when I'm feelin lonely and beat I drift back in time and I find my feet Down on mainstreet Down on mainstreet Down on mainstreet Down on mainstreet Down on mainstreet Down on mainstreet
