MAIN STREET 
(Words and Music by Bob Seger)


I remember standing on the corner 
at midnight 
Trying to get my courage up 
There was this long lovely dancer 
in a little club downtown 
I loved to watch her do her stuff 
Through the long lonely nights 
she filled my sleep 
Her body softly swaying 
to that smoky beat 
Down on Mainstreet 

In the pool halls, 
the hustlers and the losers 
I used to watch 'em 
through the glass 
Well I'd stand outside 
at closing time 
Just to watch her walk on past 
Unlike all the other ladies, 
she looked so young and sweet 
As she made her way alone 
down that empty street 
Down on Mainstreet 

And sometimes even now, 
when I'm feeling lonely and beat 
I drift back in time 
and I find my feet 
Down on Mainstreet 
Down on Mainstreet
