DOWNTOWN
When 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-'ry-thing's wait - ing for   you__________
down - town__________

Don't hang a-round__ 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 rhythm of a gentle Bossa Nova.
You'll be dancing with 'em too 
before the night is ov - er, happy a-gain.__

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,
wait-ing for you_ tonight   down   -   town.
You're gonna be__ al-right   now__________
down - town__________

And you may find somebody kind 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.
Everything's waiting for you__________
Down - town._     Down - town.__
