annie annie they're playing our song
and for a moment i'm transported to where i'm from
teenage lovers when we were young
all of the parties under the midnight sun
that's when i met the love of my life
he was a dj and we danced all through the night
tell me tell me why did you go
i can still hear our songs on the radio
whatever happened to our song
wherever i go
recall all those summer days
in the town down by the bay
or when you close your eyes
pretend and then you're back there once again
as the sun begins to fade
and the band begins to play i
let the music take me home
to the streets where i belong
to the streets where i belong
johnny johnny playing guitar
travel
the world he always fell for the short haired girls
left a loner came back to start
we used to see him playing live at the local bar
the saddest story was the woman next door
a beauty queen that met her end on the motel floor
she used to tell me annie don't stay
sing a song sir if not you'll fade away
whatever happened to them all
wherever i go i'll recall
all those friends we made
in the town down by the bay
and when you close your eyes pretend
and then we're back there once again
as the sun begins to fade
and the band begins to play i
let the music take me home
to the streets where i belong
take it away to me
to the streets where i belong
to the streets where i belong
