Downtown Lyrics


There's a place called Downtown
Where the hippies all go
And they dance the charleston
And they do the limbo
Yeah the hippies all go there
'Cause they want to be seen
It's like a room full of pictures
It's like a psychedelic dream
Downtown
Let's go downtown
Downtown at night
Downtown
Let's have a party
Downtown at night
Yeah it's right around the corner
Up and down the hill

When you hear the band playin'
It's gonna give you a chill
Give your money to the gateman
Young blood in his eye
Hold on to your baby
When you slip into the sky
Downtown
Let's go downtown
Downtown tonight
Downtown
Hear the band playin'
Downtown all right
[solo]
Jimi's playin' in the back room
Led Zeppelin on stage
There's a mirror ball twirlin'
And a note from Page
Like a water-washed diamond
In a river of sin
Goin' down like a whirlpool
When you get sucked in
Downtown
Let's go downtown
Downtown tonight
Downtown
Hear the band playin'
Downtown all right
[solo]
Downtown
Let's go downtown
Downtown tonight
Downtown
Let's have a party
Downtown all right
[solo]

1) William Smith and Steve Kennedy and Smith had been playing together with Eric Mercury and Diane Brooks in a Toronto band called the Soul Searchers that Mercury and Brooks fronted as lead vocalists. After the Soul Searchers broke up, first Kennedy and then Smith joined a group called Grant Smith And The Power which also featured David Clayton Thomas. They formed Motherlode in 1969 and relocated to Ontario where they struggled and stayed with friends. They finally got a break following their debut at the Image Club when Mort Ross signed them to Revolver Records that same year.
