Big Man On Mulberry Street lyrics

Why can t I lay low
Why can t I say what I mean
Why don t I stay home
And get myself into some boring routine

Why can t I calm down
Why is it always a fight
I can t get unwound
Why do I throw myself into the night

I m on the outside
I don t fit into the groove
Now I ain t a bad guy
So tell me what am I trying to prove

Why can t I cool out
Why don t I button my lip
Why do I lash out
Why is it I always shoot from the hip

I cruise from Houston to canal street
A misfit and a rebel
I see the winos talking to themselves
And I can understand
Why is it everytime I go out
I always seem to get in trouble
I guess I made an impression on somebody
North of Hester and south of Grand

And so in my small way
I m a big man on Mulberry street
I don t mean all day
Only at night when I m light on my feet

What else have I got
That I d be trying to hide
Maybe a blind spot
I haven t seen from the sensitive side

But you know in my own heart
I m a big man on Mulberry street
I play the whole part
I leave a big tip with every receipt

I m so romantic
I m such a passionate man
Sometimes I panic
What if nobody finds out who I am
