Standing around telling jokesWe can't go no where because we're brokeAnd we don't care if the weather may be badIt's just me and the fellasUnder the streetlamp(2)Just dreaming of the days that lye aheadAnd growing up was the one dream that was in our headsBobby wants to be the heavy weight champBut his dreams got to go a lot furtherUnder the streetlamp(2)(Ooooohhh yeah)(Yeeaahh)Just a bunch of fellas from the poor side of townUnder the streetlamp is the happiness we foundIn a neighborhood where most every things rundownSo all we've got to make it to the brighter side of townWoooooohhhWillie Mase a fella like you and meHe made it big in the major leaguesBut before he became the major league champHe stood around just like me and the fellasUnder the streetlamp(Under the streetlamp)Under the streetlamp(Under the streetlamp)(Song fades out)Every city and townYou'll find the fellas like it around
