Electric Avenue Lyrics - Singles - Eddy Grant

Boy 

Boy 

Now in the street there is violence 

An' an' a lots of work to be done 

No place to hang all our washing 

An' an' I can't blame all on the sun 

Oh no, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Oh we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Workin' so hard like a soldier 

Can't afford a thing on TV 

Deep in my heart I am warrior 

Can't get food for them kid 

Good God, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Oh we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Oh no 

Oh no 

Oh no 

Oh no 

Oh Lord, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Oh we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Who is to blame in one country? 

Never can get to the one 

Dealin' in multiplication 

And they still can't feed everyone 

Oh no, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Oh no, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Oh, out in the street 

Out in the street 

Out in the daytime 

Out in the night 

Oh, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Oh, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Out in the street 

Out in the street 

Out in the playground 

In the dark side of town 

Oh, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

Hey, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher 

We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher, Electric Avenue 

We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue 

And then we'll take it higher, Electric Avenue
