Straight Street Songtext
von Ry Cooder

Well, I used to live on Broadway
Right next to the liar′s house
My number was self-righteousness
And a very little guide of mouth

So I moved, I moved
And I'm living on straight street now
I moved, I had to move
I′m living on straight street now

Before I moved over
Let me tell you how it was with me
Old Satan had me bound in chains
And I had no liberty

One day my heart got troubled
All about my dwelling place
I heard the Lord when He spoke to me
And He told me to leave that place


So I moved (moved), I moved (moved)
And I'm living on straight street now
Yes, I moved (moved), I moved (moved)
Well, I'm living on straight street now

Since I moved, I′m really living
I′ve got peace within
I thank the Lord for everything
So glad I found new friends

Since I moved (moved), I moved (moved)
And I'm living on straight street now
I moved (moved), I had to move (moved)
And I′m living on straight street now

(Moved, moved)
I'm living on straight street now
Yes, I moved (moved), I had to move (moved)
Living on straight street now

Yes, I moved (moved), I had to move (moved)
Yes, and I′m living on straight street now
Well, I moved (moved), yes, I had to move (moved)
And I'm living on straight street now

(Moved, moved, living on straight street now)
(Moved, moved, living on straight street now)
(Moved, moved, living on straight street now)
