Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street; used to be the heart of town.

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.

You think you've seen this town clear through. Well, well, well, you can never tell.

Nothin' here that could int'rest you. Well, well, well, you can never tell.

It's not because you missed out On the things that we had to start.

Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast).

Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast).

Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast).

Or just overplayed your part.

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.

[Jam thru whole thing]

Since I'm passin' your way today, Well, well, well, you can never tell.

I just stopped by 'cause I want to say: Well, well, well, you can never tell.

I recall your darkness when it Cracked like a thunder cloud.

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart (Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart)

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart (Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart)

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart (Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart)

When I can hear it beat out loud.

Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street; used to be the heart of town.

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.

Ad lib.. in C
