Donna Devine songs
This lyric's been on the back shelf for months. Never could get anyone to sing it. Then 3 weeks ago, along came Big Jim Merrilees in Scotland. (-:

Lyrics: Donna Devine
I’m On Your Street
(v1)
They threw me outta prison
Before I done my time
No one in that whole damn place
Could stop these fists of mine
They slammed the iron gates
Made sure the key was hid
In case I wanted vengeance
For a crime I never did
Chorus
Gonna find the man who did that crime
But he won't get a chance to serve any time
So keep one eye open When you go to sleep
I’m a dangerous man And I’m on your street
(v2)
It was too damn easy
Settin’ me up like a fool
A wild kid from the wrong side
Who didn’t know the rules
Coupla run-ins with the law
Don’t make me bad
Just tryin’ to survive
Was the only life I had
Chorus
Gonna find the man who did that crime
But he won't get a chance to serve any time
So keep one eye open When you go to sleep
I’m a dangerous man And I’m on your street
Lift
Revenge is a meal best served cold
But I’ve spent too long with my rage on hold
Chorus
Gonna find the man who did that crime
But he won't get a chance to serve any time
So keep one eye open When you go to sleep
I’m a dangerous man And I’m on your street
Lift
Someone from this place set a child’s soul free
I know that I’m no angel but that devil wasn’t me
Chorus
Gonna track down the man who put me in a cell
Look him in the eyes and then send him to hell
So keep one eye open When you go to sleep
Cause I’m a dangerous man And I’m on your street
I’m a dangerous man And I’m on your street
HAHAHAH!
