Tin Pan Alley

(album: A Song - 1977)

Anytime you're feeling down
And your day needs some turning around
Turn up your radio and let the music play
Don't you know it always makes ya
Happy when the music takes ya
Just let it carry you away
And you'll be going to the place where songs are born
Where you can really get it on
They always told ya music makes the world go 'round
You can shake away your troubles like a tambourine
Tell me do you know the place I mean?

Tin Pan Alley
I'm talking 'bout Tin Pan Alley
That land of magic where the music meets the words
So come along and dream a dream or two
There's a song for you in Tin Pan Alley
Come and get your memories
You'll find 'em waiting in the melodies
Where everything you love is just a song away
Funny how the tune reminds ya
Of the things you left behind ya
You're not that far from yesterday, It's in the music

Come and let it all begin
Open up and let it in
Without a song, your heart is just a lonely place
Sometimes this crazy world can bring you down, but then
Music always brings you back again
Tin Pan Alley
I'm talking 'bout Tin Pan Alley
That land of magic where the music meets the words
So come along and dream a dream or two
There's a song for you in Tin Pan Alley

Tin Pan Alley
I'm talking 'bout Tin Pan Alley
That land of magic where the music meets the words
So come along and dream a dream or two
There's a song for you in Tin Pan Alley
