Guess you heard I'm doin' well

Struck it rich, to hear some folks tell

But I'm still the same old me

Down on easy street

You give your all to find that road

And you lose touch with some people as you go

Promises are hard to keep

Down on easy street

But when I lay down, and you're not there

Girl, I wish I was anywhere, but

[Chorus]

In this world where the telephone is all I touch

When I'm alone and no one ever really knows

The man inside of me

Up here in this lonely room just a-sippin' wine

And a-missin' you girl I've got everything

But what I need

That's why I'm down

Down on easy street

Someone told me you moved on

Well who could blame you, with me so off and gone

But do you ever think of me

Down on easy street

If you're out this way, some week, some year

Girl, you'll still find me waitin' here

[Repeat chorus twice]

Down on easy street

Down on easy street

Guess you heard I'm doin' well
