gaslight street
Singer:herman's hermits
there's a place on the edge of town
where the kids all hang around
cobbled streets and terraced houses
it's never changed in sixty years
it's never really know by name
it's called gaslight street
in the evening when the sun goes down
and there ain't nobody else around
the lamp lighter walks down the street
it doesn't have much effect it seems
the lamp light don't shine so bright
there's children playing around the street
trying to dodge their parents
when they call them in to go to sleep
monday morning and as a rule
the place is quiet they're all at school
lines of washing hang across the street
a weary policeman walks his beat
it's never changed in sixty years
it's never really known by name
it's called gaslight street
