On Every Lane
by David Kraai

You've got a pack of cigarettes burning holes in your jeans
With all your friends you're acting like some teenage Homecoming Queen
The last time that I saw you, you just couldn't be true
I bet the next time that I see you you'll be singing them Lovesick Blues

On every lane
On every lane
Places downtown where dreams aren't made
The grass may look greener but the shade's the same
There ain't no love on every lane

Some lowlife no good rounder takes the money from your purse
And you sure like to tell how much that "good guy" hurts
The sight of your beauty, it's something to behold
Still it seems you ain't quite realized that we've all gotta get old

On every lane
On every lane
Places downtown where dreams aren't made
The grass may look greener but the shade's the same
There ain't no love on every lane

It's not about the music, it's about the drugs
It's not about the smarts, it's about the love
It's your party, go put on a show
Take another shot and let the whole world know that...

On every lane
On every lane
Places downtown where dreams aren't made
The grass may look greener but the shade's the same
There ain't no love on every lane
No, there ain't no love on every lane
