[00:24.24]Sleep like a baby,
[00:33.75]my little lady,
[00:34.65]Dream till the sunrise
[00:41.94]creeps into your eyes
[00:50.52]Dream till the sunrise
[00:58.53]Turns on the day.
[00:58.89]In the Avenues and Alleyways
[01:03.12]while you sleep there's a whole world coming alive
[01:07.20]Abel and his brother, fighting one another
[01:11.22]in and out of every dive
[01:13.62]The Avenues and Alleyways
[01:18.03]where the strong and the quick alone can survive
[01:22.77]Look around the jungle
[01:23.49]see the rough and tumble
[01:25.77]Listen to a squealer cry
[01:30.21]Then a little later
[01:31.62]in the morning paper
[01:33.24]Read about the way he died.
[01:52.20]Wake up my pretty
[01:55.02]Go to the city
[02:07.23]Stay through the daytime
[02:14.61]safe in the sunshine
[02:18.45]stay till the daytime
[02:23.79]turns into night.
[02:26.46]In the Avenues and Alleyways
[02:31.05]Where a mans gotta work out which side he's on
[02:35.34]any way he chooses
[02:36.63]chances are he loses
[02:38.70]no one gets to live too long
[02:41.13]the avenues and alleyways
[02:43.53]Where the soul of a man is easy to buy
[02:50.04]everybody's wheeling
[02:51.60]everybody's dealing
[02:53.52]all the low are living high
[02:57.21]Every city's got em
[02:58.95]can we ever stop em
[03:03.66]some of us've gotta try.

Sleep like a baby,
my little lady,
Dream till the sunrise
creeps into your eyes
Dream till the sunrise
Turns on the day.
In the Avenues and Alleyways
while you sleep there's a whole world coming alive
Abel and his brother, fighting one another
in and out of every dive
The Avenues and Alleyways
where the strong and the quick alone can survive
Look around the jungle
see the rough and tumble
Listen to a squealer cry
Then a little later
in the morning paper
Read about the way he died.
Wake up my pretty
Go to the city
Stay through the daytime
safe in the sunshine
stay till the daytime
turns into night.
In the Avenues and Alleyways
Where a mans gotta work out which side he's on
any way he chooses
chances are he loses
no one gets to live too long
the avenues and alleyways
Where the soul of a man is easy to buy
everybody's wheeling
everybody's dealing
all the low are living high
Every city's got em
can we ever stop em
some of us've gotta try.
