East Side Story Lyrics by Acoustic Junction

Acoustic Junction

[Verse 1]
Sittin' on a stairwell on the Upper East Side
Oh, Jack, he watches as a poodle in its mink a-stroll on by
The skies turn to grey as old Jack, he turns away
Knowin' that poodle probably eats better than most cats in this town
[Chorus]
And he wants to leave but he knows he is bound
To open shelters, wherever they may be found
To the West Side sky, a new hope in his eyes
Another day here, another day alive
[Verse 2]
In New York City, his friends, they can be found
Mumblin' about doors bein' too big, too wide, too round
Or you'll see them in the alley with their coats not too thick
Or you'll hear them in the subway askin' for money or an old ticket to New Brunswick
[Harmonica Solo]
[Bridge]
Well, Jack, he gave in many long winters ago
When the bright lights of the city dimmed to a desperate glow
And the four seasons, they turned to snow
"Baby, you can never be warm once you been that cold"
[Chorus]
And he wants to leave but he knows he is bound
To open shelters, wherever they may be found
To the West Side sky, a new hope in his eye
Another day here, another day alive
Another day alive
Another day alive, oh
[Instrumental Outro]
