Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out [Hammersmith Odeon, London ’75]

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Teardrops on the city Bad Scooter searching for his groove Seem like the whole world's walking pretty And you can't find the room to move Well, everybody better move over, that's all 'Cause I'm running on the bad side and I got my back to the wall [Chorus] Tenth Avenue freeze-out Tenth Avenue freeze-out [Verse 2] I was stranded in the jungle Takin' all the heat that they was giving The night is dark but the sidewalks bright And lined with the light of the living From a tenement window a transistor blasts Turn around the corner, things got real quiet real fast [Chorus] I walked into a Tenth Avenue freeze-out Tenth Avenue freeze-out [Bridge] And I'm all alone, I'm all alone, Big Man! And kid you better get the picture And I'm on my own, I'm on my own And I can't go home [Verse 3] They made that change uptown And the Big Man joined the band From the coastline to the city All the little pretties raise their hands I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh When Scooter and the Big Man bust this city in half [Chorus] Tenth Avenue freeze-out Talkin' 'bout a Tenth avenue freeze-out I'm talkin' 'bout a Tenth avenue freeze-out [Outro] Talkin' 'bout a Tenth avenue freeze-out Talkin' 'bout a Tenth avenue freeze-out Talkin' 'bout a Tenth avenue freeze-out Talkin' 'bout a Tenth avenue freeze-out Talkin' 'bout a Tenth avenue freeze-out Tenth avenue freeze-out Tenth avenue freeze-out Tenth avenue freeze-out Tenth avenue freeze-out Tenth avenue freeze-out Oh yeah, it's all right
