[00:23.430] Sleep like a baby, my little lady,
[00:33.680] Dream till the sunrise creeps into your eyes,
[00:48.770] Dream till the sunrise turns on the day
[00:55.130] In the Avenues and Alleyways,
[00:59.890] While you sleep there＇s a whole world coming alive,
[01:06.440] Able and his brother, fighting one another in and out of every dive,
[01:12.620] The Avenues and Alleyways,
[01:14.620] where the strong and the quick alone can survive,
[01:21.110] Look around the jungle, see the rough and tumble,
[01:24.790] Listen to a squealer cry,
[01:27.030] Then a little later in the morning paper,
[01:31.960] Read about the way he died
[01:34.900] Wake up my pretty, go to the city,
[02:01.050] Stay through the daytime,
[02:08.660] Safe in the sunshine,
[02:16.020] Stay till the daytime turns into night
[02:23.390] In the Avenues and Alleyways,
[02:27.010] Where a mans gotta work out which side he＇s on,
[02:33.780] Any way he chooses chances are he loses,
[02:37.080] No one gets to live too long,
[02:39.770] The avenues and alleyways,
[02:42.270] Where the soul of a man is easy to buy,
[02:47.890] Everybody＇s wheeling,
[02:50.390] Everybody＇s steeling,
[02:52.080] All the low are living high,
[02:54.320] Every city＇s got em,
[02:58.210] Can we ever stop em?
[02:59.700] Some of us are gonna try
