Greasy Street

Lyrics

When I don't fall down You may not get up on Greasy Street Don't fall down You may not get up on Greasy Street

Lights falter Pipes call Don't come here Life ain't soft on Greasy Street

Must've been some kind of spill on Greasy Street I'm slipping and sliding up and down the hill on Greasy Street

Iridescent rainbow reflecting light Gas fire in the night Over the Gulf of Mexico And over the desert, don't you know It's all on Greasy Street

Come on down to Greasy Street But don't fall down You won't get up on Greasy Street

Greasy Street, Greasy Street Greasy Street, Greasy Street Greasy Street, Greasy Street, Greasy Street, Greasy Street

The snake can't slither There ain't nowhere to go on Greasy Street You can't wear leather on Greasy Street

Well it's one foot in front of the other And one foot in front of the other And one foot in front of the other And one foot in front of the other And you ain't going nowhere on Greasy Street

Things move real slow They barely even go Everybody you know You ever saw down there is still on show On Greasy Street

Oh, pump-a, pump-a, pump-a Pump-a, pump-a, pump-a Bring a gusher Down on Easy Street Pump-a, pump-a, pump-a Bring yourself a gusher Down on Easy Street Easy Street Greasy Street Easy Street Easy Street is Greasy Street Is Easy Street is Greasy Street Don't be scared Just rub it in your hair You'll be happier they're there On Greasy Street

OPEC! OPEC! OPEC! OPEC! OPEC! OPEC! OPEC!
