Here comes old Rosie she's looking mighty fine 
Here comes hot Nancy she's steppin' right on time 
There go the street lights bringin on the night 
Here come the men faces hidden from the light 
All through the shadows they come and they go 
With only one thing in common 
They got the fire down below 
 
Here comes the rich man in his big long limousine 
Here comes the poor man all you got to have is green 
Here comes the banker and the lawyer and the cop 
One thing for certain it ain't never gonna stop 
When it all gets too heavy 
That's when they come and go 
With only one thing in common 
They got the fire down below 
 
It happens out in Vegas happens in Moline 
On the blue blood streets of Boston 
Up in Berkeley and out in Queens 
And it went on yesterday and it's going on tonight 
Somewhere there's somebody ain't treatin' somebody right 
 
And he's looking out for Rosie and she's looking mighty fine 
And he's walking the streets for Nancy 
And he'll find her everytime 
When the street light flicker bringing on the night 
Well they'll be slipping into darkness slipping out of sight 
All through the midnight 
Watch 'em come and watch 'em go 
With only one thing in common 
They got the fire down below
