Easy Street
Amanaz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Im gonna live away the time
I'm gonna make her cry
Tears every morning
Breakfast in bed
Think you're gonna beg me stay

Get me down to Easy Street
If that's where you wanna be
Feeling groovy
Feeling funky
Everyone on Easy Street

People say a lotta things
Down the Easy street
Get together
Stand together
That's the only way to live

Get me back to my base
That's the only way out
I'm gonna stay
I'm gonna stay
Down on Easy Street

People say a lotta things
Down the Easy street
Get together
Stand together
That's the only way to live

Get me back to my base
That's the only way out
I'm gonna stay




I'm gonna stay
Down on Easy Street
