Lyrics:
Let you're alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go - downtown.
When you've got worries all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know - down town.

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles
forget all your cares
So go - down town
Things'll be great when you're - down town
No finer place for sure - down town
Ev'rything's waiting for you - Down town

Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows - down town,
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close. - down town
Just listen to the rythm of a gentle Bossa Nova
You'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is over
happy again

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles
forget all your cares
So go - down town
where all the lights are bright - Down town,
waiting for you, tonight - Down town,
you're gonna be all right now.

You know
To help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand
To guide them along,

So, maybe I'll see you there,
We can forget all our troubles,
forget all our cares.
So go - down town
things'll be great when you're - down town,
Don't wait a minute more - down town
Ev'rything's waiting for you

Down town, down town,
down town, down town..
