Bob Seger - Mainstreet Lyrics

Bob Seger Lyrics

"Mainstreet"

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
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
Down on Mainstreet

In the pool halls, the hustlers and the losers
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
Down on Mainstreet
Ooh

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

Down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet
Down on Mainstreet
