Well, you can take the subway, I'll meet you there
 I'll get a taxi 'cos it's rough down here
 The buildings were burning on the 4th of July
 Oh but we have fun
 On the Lower East Side (3x)

 And now the clubs are open all night long
 It's the kind of place you feel you belong
 Take off your pretense and follow me
 On the Lower East Side, yeah, we can be free
 On the Lower East Side (2x)

 In Alphabet City - hey hey - In Alphabet City (2x)

 The rain is falling on the summer heat
 On the Lower East Side it's cool on the street
 Street cars drive out of control
 Oh come on girl, let's catch some rock 'n' roll
 On the Lower East Side (2x)

 In Alphabet City - hey hey - In Alphabet City (2x)

 Alphabet City so pretty at night
 All night parties, neon lights
 Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
 Alphabet City is the place for me
 Alphabet City (2x)
 C'mon
 Carry me home (4x)
