Billy he's down by the railroad 
tracks
Sittin' low in the back seat of his 
Cadillac
Diamond Jackie, she's so intact
As she falls so softly beneath him

Am                                
Jackie's heels are stacked
      Em

Billy's got cleats on his boots
Together they're gonna boogaloo down
 Broadway and come back home with 
the loot
It's midnight in Manhattan, this is 
no

C
time to get cute
D       Dsus2           D       
It's a mad dog's promenade

Fish lady, oh fish lady
She baits them tenement walls
She won't take corner boys
They ain't got no money
And they're so easy
I said "Hey, baby
Won't you take my hand
Walk with me down Broadway
Well mama take my arm andÊ move with
 me down Broadway"
I'm a young man, I talk it real loud
Yeah babe I walk it real proud for 
you
Ah so shake it away
So shake away your street life
Shake away your city life
Hook up to the train
And hook up to the night train
Hook it up
Hook up to the train

(strum fast)
Am                                
But I know that she won't take the
      Em
 train, no she won't take the train
Oh she won't take the train, no she 
won't take the train
Oh she won't take the train, no she 
won't take the train

C
She's afraid them tracks are gonna 
slow her down
And when she turns this
D       Dsus2           D       
boy'll be gone
Dsus2


G       Em      Am      C
So long, sometimes you just gotta 
walk on, walk on
Hey vibes man, hey jazz man, play me
 your serenade
Any deeper blue and you're playin' 
in your grave

Am                              
Save your notes, don't spend 'em on 
Em
the blues boy
Save your notes, don't spend 'em on 
the darlin' yearlin' sharp boy
Straight for the church note 
ringin',
C
vibes man sting a trash can

D       Dsus2           D       
Listen to your junk man
Dsus2

Listen to your junk man
Listen to your junk man

G       Em      Am      C
He's singin', he's singin', he's 
singin'
All dressed up in satin, walkin' 
past the alley
He's singin', singin', singin', 
singin'
