text: Theres a crooked street in Houston town
  Its a well worn path Ive followed down
  Now, theres ruin in my name
  I wish Id never got off the train
  I wished Id listened to the words you said
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Youll be lost and never found
  You can never turn around
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Once I held you in my arms I was sure
  Til I took that silent stare through the gilded door
  But the desire to have much more
  All the glitter and the roar
  Now I know this is where the sidewalk ends
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Youll be lost and never found
  You can never turn around
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  When I was young I thought only of getting out
  I said good-bye to my street, good-bye to my house
  Give a man gin, give a man cards
  Give an inch, he takes a yard
  And I rue the day that I stepped off this train
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
  Youll be lost and never found
  You can never turn around
  Dont go down to Fannin Street
