Well his name is red and plays the tele

Broke it in 20 years ago sittin' in this same bar

Same hat same boots same everything

Her name's louise but not mandrell

She's got 80's hair and fringe all around her skirt

And she pours her heart out when she sings

There's a band in the window

Down on Broadway where the streets are paved

With hopeful expectations

Take it Johnny bring it home

The bus is leavin' gotta go

One more up-tempo band in the window

Well now jerry's a drummer he lives for the music

One shot of Cuervo and he's ready to play

Nothin' else matters more

No shirt no shoes no job no wife

Side walks full of bystanders and tourists

Wantin' a taste of the gypsy thing

Rockin' to the loud guitars

Rebels and Chevy's and neon signs

There's a band in the window

Down on Broadway where the streets are paved

With hopeful expectations

Take it Johnny bring it home

The bus is leavin' gotta go

One more up-tempo band in the window

Three nights ago we were downtown

I swear I saw a silhouette

Shimmerin' in the light

Out walkin' after midnight

Well she went through the door and nobody else saw her

Followed her shadow there by the stage

Starin' up at Louise

Singin' every word of sweet dreams

There's a band in the window

Down on Broadway where the streets are paved

With hopeful expectations

Take it Johnny bring it home

The bus is leavin' gotta go

One more up-tempo band in the window

One more up-tempo band in the window
