Magnum: Back street kid [lyrics]

Magnum

Back street kid

He had eyes of the poor wild and hungry

Stood outside of the store shy and clumsy

Saw an electric guitar he got hooked from the start

That's what it did

To the back street kid

It's a dangerous game might come to nothing

Very hard to explain the pushing and the shoving

Still the sound in his ears and the many lean years

Taught him to live

Back street kid

Everyone was saying it

CHORUS

Dream, dream, back street kid

Dream, dream, dream, dream, back street kid

He spends hours on his own he's still learning

Learns to wait for the phone ideas burning

And from Liberty Hall he will rise or he'll fall

That's how he'll live

The back street kid

All the kids are saying it

CHORUS

He stepped into the rain cold and empty

Whispered never again not contented

Walked off into the night he walked far out of sight

So much to give

The back street kid

CHORUS

Hear your mamma calling

CHORUS

Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream on (x8)
