mr. downtown mr. downtown

darkness falls and the night's begun

the river of light burns as bright as the sun

under the waning moon is danger to be found



for the man with the badge in the night

the man with the badge in the night

what's his name?

mr. downtown mr. downtown

mr. downtown mr. downtown



oh you can't run away when you can't run away

when you're walking a lonely beat

but there's love to be found

yes there's love to be found

on the shadowy side of the street



morning comes and you toss and turn

the night's now a memory ceasing to burn

up from the streets below

a haunting daunting sound



for the man with the badge in the night

for the man with the badge in the fight

for the man with the badge in the night

the man with the badge in the night

mr. downtown mr. downtown

mr. downtown mr. downtown
