Big Man On Mulberry Lyrics

song lyrics 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 song lyrics
