I live on the West side
By the county reservoir
And she lives down
On Depot Street
Behind the city hall
Behind the city hall

Her father's name
Is Macintosh
Her mother's name
Is Pearl
And they live down
On Depot Street
She's my little girl
She's my little girl

Down on Depot Street
I'm gonna see my baby
Depot Street
I'm gonna see my girl
Depot Street
Baby, baby, baby
Depot Street
Behind the city hall

We ain't got no money
We don't have no car
We stay down
On Depot Street
Just dancin' in the park
Dancin' in the park

And her sister
Doesn't like me
But I don't really care
I know the only reason
Is she wants me for herself
She wants me for herself

Down on Depot Street
I'm gonna see my baby
Depot Street
I'm gonna see my girl
Depot Street
Baby, baby, baby
Depot Street
Behind the city hall

She's my baby
She's my girl

And we ain't been
To college
We both
Quit high school
There was way
Too many people
There makin' way
Too many rules
Makin' way
Too many rules

So we got no education
But we don't care at all
Cause it don't mean much
On Depot Street
Behind the city hall
Behind the city hall

Down on Depot Street
I'm gonna see my baby
Depot Street
I'm gonna see my girl
Depot Street
Baby, baby, baby
Depot Street
Behind the city hall
