Downtown L.A. - J.J. Cale[00:00:00]

Downtown L.A. is a depressing place[00:00:25]

You can see young men with deep lines in their face[00:00:28]

They could all be something if somebody cared[00:00:31]

But nobody knows they're even down there[00:00:34]

Old woman walking with a sack on her back[00:00:37]

Picking up the garbage people put out back[00:00:39]

Men down there trying to walk the line[00:00:42]

Trading their soul for a bottle of wine[00:00:45]

In the inner city it ain't no good[00:00:50]

It's a long, long way from Hollywood[00:00:53]

Bad kind of people got a hold of the street[00:00:56]

They got something that the poor people need[00:00:59]

At two in the morning they bust your head[00:01:02]

Fat chance walking you'll end up dead[00:01:04]

It' the law of the jungle with a gun and a knife[00:01:07]

If you stay long enough you lose your life[00:01:10]

Man down there he couldn't be lying[00:01:40]

He was sleeping in the street and[00:01:43]

He couldn't keep from crying[00:01:45]

Said he'd been there for twenty one years[00:01:46]

Through the bars and the brawls and[00:01:49]

The blues and the tears[00:01:51]

Prop up the front the back falls down[00:01:52]

All around the canyons of L.A. town[00:01:55]

When he asked me for a dollar[00:01:58]

I looked him in his face[00:02:00]

Downtown L.A. is a depressing place[00:02:01]
