about

A song about Portland, Maine.

You know when you go out, and all the young night life people know everything about everything and tell you about it REALLY loud?

And the store and club owners deal with it, night after night after night.

Its another night on Wharf Street.

lyrics

From cobblestones to parking zones, there's something in the air.
High heeled shoes are giving me the blues, but no one seems to care.
Never telling who you'll meet when the sun sets down on Wharf Street.

The same old folks all get provoked when the papers print their lines.
In their youth they know the truth, its clearly been defined.
They have to feel that they're offbeat when the night is young on Wharf Street.

At closing time they stream out in lines, the girls all trip and fall.
The bearded men throw punches, then the writings on the wall.
Its the same old people that you'll meet when its closing time on Wharf Street.

Another day, the same old fray all leads up to the night.
The clubs all clean their floors and bars and hit the neon lights.
It's the same old tune, it's the same old beat. Its another night on Wharf Street.

Its another night on Wharf Street.
Lets all spend another night on Wharf Street.
Come on down, another night on Wharf Street.
Its another night on Wharf Street.
