Jeanette was a dancer Suppose I knew her well Her feet danced miracles I was deep within her spell Jeanette loved a singer Who was the leader of some band Looked just like a boy And stood just like a man Refrain: And it rains on Down deep Avenue Yes it rains on Down deep Avenue Just for you boy (x2) The kids in the backstreet cried The voices in your brain A world full of hungry souls Behind the window pane Little Jenny on the high wire So emotioned as she felt Sometimes I think that the wires mean The tragedy as well Refrain. I walked on the west-side Jeanette I pulled your strings I stood on the pavement Never doing a thing Still I'm a singer I know my songs so well The rain falls through my eyes Lands below the share Refrain.
