<pre><font size='+2'>JERSEY CITY STREETS lyrics THE HUDSON FALCONS</font><br>Bringin a gun to a knife fight will get you killed <br />
<br />
Walkin out the back door <br />
<br />
Morals and rules only exist in the street <br />
<br />
And the bids to buy them are going fast and large <br />
<br />
Survival, Jackson, is a full time job <br />
<br />
You have to keep in step with the city`s heartbeat <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The guys that hung out at Tippy`s back in the day <br />
<br />
Have all split up and gone their separate ways <br />
<br />
But once in a while you can still catch some of the crew <br />
<br />
At a shot and beer joint up in the Heights <br />
<br />
Longin for the days of running numbers and starting street fights <br />
<br />
With those who didn`t play by the rules <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In the shadow of the Apple and a swamp away from Newark <br />
<br />
People`s hearts beat straight but their souls always ring truer <br />
<br />
You gotta back it with some muscle and think fast on your feet <br />
<br />
On the Jersey City streets <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Part of the city`s been ruined by gentrification <br />
<br />
Other parts are off limits cause it`s a gangland`s nation <br />
<br />
But mostly its just workin class folks tryin to get by <br />
<br />
They`ll help you if you`re in a jam <br />
<br />
What you do with your private life they don`t give a damn <br />
<br />
But if someone`s trouble, news spreads like wildfire <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Patchwork congregation goes down to White Mana nightly <br />
<br />
The cops go down there to relax, cause they`re wound so tightly <br />
<br />
From keepin the hookers and hitters in line but out of sight <br />
<br />
The guys there can mix it up in the ring, or throw down in the street <br />
<br />
But they`re all real friendly and make you something to eat <br />
<br />
Sometimes its just an oasis in the middle of the night<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In the shadow of the Apple and a swamp away from Newark <br />
<br />
People`s hearts beat straight but their souls always ring truer <br />
<br />
As tough as Hell`s Kitchen if you can`t take the heat <br />
<br />
On the Jersey City streets <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
A 40 ounce, a vial, a dime bag or two <br />
<br />
Anything to get you make you feel better or at least get you through <br />
<br />
I may be hurtin, but I`m feeling no pain <br />
<br />
And to those who left us before their time <br />
<br />
We raise our bottles to you when we`re drinkin our wine <br />
<br />
Cause a little bit of you comes down from the heavens or up from the gutters when it rains <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In the shadow of the Apple and a swamp away from Newark <br />
<br />
People`s hearts beat straight but their souls always ring truer <br />
<br />
The girls down there are real tough, but they taste awfully sweet On the Jersey City streets<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/jersey_city_streets_lyrics-the_hudson_falcons.html" target='_blank'>JERSEY CITY STREETS lyrics THE HUDSON FALCONS</a></pre>

Jersey City Streets lyrics

Send "Jersey City Streets" Ringtone to your Cell

Bringin a gun to a knife fight will get you killed

Walkin out the back door

Morals and rules only exist in the street

And the bids to buy them are going fast and large

Survival, Jackson, is a full time job

You have to keep in step with the city`s heartbeat

The guys that hung out at Tippy`s back in the day

Have all split up and gone their separate ways

But once in a while you can still catch some of the crew

At a shot and beer joint up in the Heights

Longin for the days of running numbers and starting street fights

With those who didn`t play by the rules

In the shadow of the Apple and a swamp away from Newark

People`s hearts beat straight but their souls always ring truer

You gotta back it with some muscle and think fast on your feet

On the Jersey City streets

Part of the city`s been ruined by gentrification

Other parts are off limits cause it`s a gangland`s nation

But mostly its just workin class folks tryin to get by

They`ll help you if you`re in a jam

What you do with your private life they don`t give a damn

But if someone`s trouble, news spreads like wildfire

Patchwork congregation goes down to White Mana nightly

The cops go down there to relax, cause they`re wound so tightly

From keepin the hookers and hitters in line but out of sight

The guys there can mix it up in the ring, or throw down in the street

But they`re all real friendly and make you something to eat

Sometimes its just an oasis in the middle of the night

In the shadow of the Apple and a swamp away from Newark

People`s hearts beat straight but their souls always ring truer

As tough as Hell`s Kitchen if you can`t take the heat

On the Jersey City streets

A 40 ounce, a vial, a dime bag or two

Anything to get you make you feel better or at least get you through

I may be hurtin, but I`m feeling no pain

And to those who left us before their time

We raise our bottles to you when we`re drinkin our wine

Cause a little bit of you comes down from the heavens or up from the gutters when it rains

In the shadow of the Apple and a swamp away from Newark

People`s hearts beat straight but their souls always ring truer

The girls down there are real tough, but they taste awfully sweet On the Jersey City streets
