text: Theres a crooked street
  In Houston town
  Its a well born path
  Ive traveled down
  Now theres ruin in my name
  I wish I 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
  But I took that silent stare
  Through the guilded door
  The desire to have much more
  All the glitter and the roar
  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 goodbye to my street
  Goodbye 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
