Tommy was a young boy When he lived next to me His life was in danger On the day he left the scene They say he looked scared Looked like he been playing the fool His sweet ginger told me He will and broke the golden rule One day he's in heaven The next day cold as hell They say he was a gambler He took your chance He ring your bell Tommy was rocker He answer the call On the day they try to punch his ticket He's still standing tall
He couldn't hide his trace He couldn't win the race
Rising up — feel the heat Nothing's easy on this one way street You running hard but you can't compete 'Cause nothing's easy On this one way street
Late one night With the gun in his hand He try to take fly He try to escape in a foreign land
He couldn't keep the pace He couldn't win the race
Rising up — feel the heat Nothing's easy on this one way street You running hard but you can't compete 'Cause nothing's easy On this one way street
Where you're going tommy One way street Is a dead end You know it's just a dead end street
Rising up — feel the heat Nothing's easy on this one way street You running hard but you can't compete 'Cause nothing's easy On this one way street
