van morrison – the street only knew your name (1975) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
your street, rich street or poor
you should always be sure of your street
there’s a place in your heart, when you know from the start
and you can’t be complete without a street

[verse 2]
and keep movin’ on, just like a train
sometimes you gotta look back to the street again
would you prefer all those castles in spain
or a view of the street from your window pane?

[chorus]
when you were young, so young
so very very young
when you were young, so young
so very very very very young
and the street only knew your name
and the street only knew your name
and the street only knew your namе
oh your precious name, precious namе

[verse 3]
there was walter and john, katie and ron
now all hung around the corner lamplight
get together sing some songs
like boppin’ the blues + you make me feel alright
[verse 4]
that was long before fortune and fame
no such thing as a star when you’ve played that game
everyone knew who everyone was
there was no pretense in the street no, no

[chorus]
when you were young, so young
so very very very very young
oh, when you were young, so young
so very very very young
and the street only knew your name
and the street only knew your name
and the street only knew your name
oh your name, precious name

[bridge]
and you walked around in the heart of town
listening for that sound
and you walked around in the heart of town
listening for that sound
blue suede shoes, it was the blue suede shoes

[chorus]
when you were young, so young
so very very very very young
when you were young, so young
very very very young
and the street only knew your name
and the street only knew your name
and the street only knew your name
[outro]
talking ’bout the street now baby
(street only knew your name)
or the sound of bee bop a lula
(street only knew your name)
or the sound of blue suede shoes
(street only knew your name)
or the sound of good golly miss molly
(street only knew your name)
or the sound of tutti frutti
(street only knew your name)
or singing what i say
(street only knew your name)
or singing boppin’ the blues or who slapped john
(street only knew your name)
i wanna see only knew your name
(street only knew your name)
yeah yeah yeah
(street only knew your name)
talkin’ about the street now baby
(street only knew your name)
(street only knew your name)
and the street only knew your name
