He don't hang around with the gang no more

He don't do the wild things that he did before

He used to act bad

Used to but he quit it

It makes me so sad

‘Cause I know that he did it for me

I can see

His heart

His heart is out in the street

He don't comb his hair like he did before

He don't wear those dirty old black boots no more

But he's not the same

There's something 'bout his kisses that tells me he's changed

I know there's something missing inside

Something died

His heart

His heart is out in the streets

He grew up on the sidewalk streetlights shining above

He grew up with no one to love

He grew up on the sidewalk

He grew up running free

He grew up and then he met me

He don't hang around with the gang no more

Gee he doesn't smile like he did before

I wish I didn't care

I wish I'd never met him

They're waiting out there

So I got to set him free

He's gotta be

Out in the street

His heart

His heart is out in the street

He don't hang around with the gang no more

{He's out in the street}

He don't hang around with the gang no more

He don't hang around with the gang no more

{He's out in the street}

He don't hang around with the gang no more
