An ample sigh, I wonder why As recklessly I promenade All through town, you'd hear the sound But the hunger only stayed With all my might, I took the night In every way I knew How hard I try but it won't die Staggering in the blue Take me homeward Or is that just a word? Overtaken Or did I just get took? A step I take and all hell breaks When the water doesn't turn to wine The mental state, I can't relate What they steal was never mine And I'll allow, they took me now 'Coz truthfully, I had no choice And if that's the fee, then leave me be
With your sweet seductive voice Take me homeward Or is that just a word? Overtaken Or did I just get took? Step right this way and what you say It's job number one and that's how we play Step right inside, no need to hide Just sign right here and we'll take that ride Step on up, it might get rough The New York City streets were always tough Now step off, son, goodnight, you're done And remember, stepping out is lots of fun Take me homeward Or is that just a word? Overtaken Or did I just get took?
