That's What You Do (When You're Livin' Downtown)
Capo III
C G
Young Preacher Casey screamin' at me
F C G
Saving my soul from eternal misery
Am
Out here on the street
C
No shoes on his feet
F G
Clothes all tattered and worn
The mall rat says "Bum me a smoke
I'm just out here to piss off my folks
They don't want here
But don't want me there
Seems they don't want me anywhere"
Chorus
C F G Am
Out on the corner just hangin' around
C F G C
That's what you do when your livin' downtown.
She's back on the corner lookin' for John
Been about a week since she's been gone
Feedin her fiend
With a needle unclean
The tracks leading to a room all alone
Sixteen days in the county jail
Was like a vacation from all this hell
The smell of the s**t
The booze that he quit
Dreaming of home long ago
Chorus
