Testo Uptown Streets

On a Saturday night, in the heat of the Summer of Sam
I was truly scared, for the first nine years I ran
It was a mighty fine day in the USA I bet
Yeah I wrote it on the back of my hand so I wouldn't forget

Those uptown streets
We all drive down
They may be worn out, been broken, and yet somehow They carried so many
Of us to safety
Those uptown streets
We walk those now

Gotta keep your eyes wide open all the time
Gotta keep your focus on the bigger prize
I was buying once again [?] under corner store
Riding BMX like a [?] for delivery boy

Those uptown streets
We all drive down
They may be worn out, been broken, and yet somehow
They carried so many
Of us to safety Those uptown streets
We walk those now

Yeah
We still walk those streets
We still walk those streets

Those uptown streets
We all drive down
They may be worn out, been broken, and yet somehow
They carried so many
Of us to safety
Those uptown streets
We walk those now
