D            E              A 
 Put on your best dress baby 
                             D 
And darling fix your hair up right 
                E          A 
Cause there's a party honey 
                           D 
Way down beneath the neon lights 
                     E                   D 
All day you've been working that hard line 
             C#                      F#m | E | D 
Now tonight you're gonna have a good time 
 
             E              A 
I work five days a week girl 
                            D 
Loading crates down on the dock 
          E               A 
I take my hard earned money 
                             D 
And meet my girl down on the block 
                      E              D 
And Monday when the foreman calls time 
                 C#            F#m 
I've already got Friday on my mind 
 
                  Bm 
When that whistle blows 
                    F#m 
Girl, I'm down the street 
               F#                   A 
I'm home, I'm out of my work clothes 
                         D                 A 
When I'm out in the street oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 
           E               A 
I walk the way I wanna walk 
                          D                A 
When I'm out in the street oh, oh, oh, oh, oh  
            E             D 
I talk the way I wanna talk 
                         A 
When I'm out in the street 
                         Bm 
When I'm out in the street

D             E                 A 
 When I'm out in the street girl, 
                    D 
Well, I never feel alone 
              E                A 
When I'm out in the street girl, 
                        D 
In the crowd I feel at home 
               E                  D 
The black and whites they cruise by 
                            C#              F#m 
And they watch us from the corner of their eyes 
 
                    Bm               F#m 
But there ain't no doubt girl, down here 
                 F#                        A 
We ain't gonna take what they're handing out 
                         D                 A 
When I'm out in the street oh, oh, oh, oh, oh  
            E              A 
I walk the way I wanna walk 
                         D                 A

Baby, out in the street I don't feel sad or blue 
                                               D 
Baby, out in the street I'll be waiting for you
