Streets of your town Sung by Rockhampton boy Grant McLennan (1958-2006) with a prominent backing vocal by Amanda Brown and a guitar solo by bassist John Willsteed. Originally written at Grant and Amanda's apartment at Bondi in Sydney. Released in July 1988. Probably their most recognised song. [Chorus] Round and round, up and down Through the streets of your town Everyday I make my way Through the streets of your town [Verse 1] Don't the sun look good today? But the rain is on its way Watch the butcher shine his knives And this town is full of battered wives [Chorus] Round and round, up and down Through the streets of your town Everyday I make my way Through the streets of your town [Verse 2] And I ride your river under the bridge And I take your boat out to the reach Cos I love that engine roar But I still don't know what I'm here for [Chorus] Round and round, up and down Through the streets of your town Everyday I make my way Through the streets of your town [Bridge] They shut it down They closed it down They shut it down They pulled it down [Chorus] Round and round, up and down Through the streets of your town Everyday I make my way Through the streets of your town Round and round, up and down Through the streets of your town Everyday I make my way Through the streets of your town Round and round, up and down Through the streets of your town Everyday I make my way Through the streets of your town Round and round, up and down Through the streets of your town |
