<pre><font size='+2'>CHESTNUT STREET lyrics JOHN MELLENCAMP</font><br>Written by John Mellencamp<br />
<br />
Well I`ve lived and breathed and been disbelieved<br />
in these small town streets too long<br />
I`ve been up with the winners and down with the sinners<br />
And hung on this corner `til dawn<br />
And my hands they have been tied<br />
To a life I`ve been denied<br />
I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy<br />
And workin` from nine to five<br />
<br />
By the end of the day, all the kids would go play<br />
And I`d come staggering home<br />
With a dream in my hand and a master plan<br />
That wouln`t leave my mind alone<br />
I compromised all my schemes<br />
And flucturated all my dreams<br />
I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy<br />
And nothing is like it really seems<br />
<br />
(bridge)<br />
<br />
But you must believe that when I walk down the tracks<br />
The young girls fall back and say<br />
There goes that sleek young silhouette<br />
He don`t drive no Corvette<br />
But he stings just like a Sting Ray<br />
And that`s my only redemption in this house of detention<br />
That keeps me from simply blowin` it all away<br />
`Cause when I walk down the street in the hot summer heat<br />
I say, God don`t take this away<br />
<br />
I keep hopin` and wishin` that these romantic positions<br />
Gonna help me hide my pain<br />
And all the hurt that I`ve felt underneath my leather studded belt<br />
Of not finding fortune and fame<br />
But some day I`ll blow `em away with the things that I may sing and<br />
might say<br />
I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy<br />
And waitin` for my pay dirt day<br />
<br />
I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy<br />
And waitin` for my pay day<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/chestnut_street_lyrics-john_mellencamp.html" target='_blank'>CHESTNUT STREET lyrics JOHN MELLENCAMP</a></pre>

Written by John Mellencamp

Well I`ve lived and breathed and been disbelieved
in these small town streets too long
I`ve been up with the winners and down with the sinners
And hung on this corner `til dawn
And my hands they have been tied
To a life I`ve been denied
I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy
And workin` from nine to five

By the end of the day, all the kids would go play
And I`d come staggering home
With a dream in my hand and a master plan
That wouln`t leave my mind alone
I compromised all my schemes
And flucturated all my dreams
I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy
And nothing is like it really seems

(bridge)

But you must believe that when I walk down the tracks
The young girls fall back and say
There goes that sleek young silhouette
He don`t drive no Corvette
But he stings just like a Sting Ray
And that`s my only redemption in this house of detention
That keeps me from simply blowin` it all away
`Cause when I walk down the street in the hot summer heat
I say, God don`t take this away

I keep hopin` and wishin` that these romantic positions
Gonna help me hide my pain
And all the hurt that I`ve felt underneath my leather studded belt
Of not finding fortune and fame
But some day I`ll blow `em away with the things that I may sing and
might say
I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy
And waitin` for my pay dirt day

I`m just a small town boy bein` used like a toy
And waitin` for my pay day
