Words & Music by Jameson Fox Walking down the street I came across A red-doored house with a white old porch Would you ever think you’d hear something so grand? It’s some kids who play together in a band There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood Neatly laid out amps were in a row A screen door propped open for the show A boy played the drums and a girl played the bass Their sister strummed guitar with such grace There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood Their music brought life to the street Were the tuning fork and the beat Sing of love and truth in the ‘hood Don’t you hear them now? Damn they sound so good In that beat, from the porch on the street, a hundred souls became one There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood Taking turns they each sang a different verse While Watsky built his castle on the curb And the grandmothers pretend they’re at the Strand But it’s just those kids who play in the band There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood Their music brought life to the street Were the tuning fork and the beat Sing of love and truth in the ‘hood Don’t you hear them now? Damn they sound so good In that beat, from the porch on the street, a hundred souls became one There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood There’s a Street Band playing In the neighborhood There is music playing In the neighborhood There is music playing In the neighborhood
