Julie London – Easy Street- 1955

Easy Street,
[Em] [A] [A7]
I'd love to live on Easy Street;
[D7] [Em] [A] [F#m]
Nobody works on Easy Street,
[D7] [Em] [A] [F#m]
Just lie 'round all day,
[D7] [Bm7] [Em]
Just sit and play the horses!
[A] [F#m] [D7]
Life is sweet
[Em] [A] [A7]
For folks who live on Easy Street;
[D7] [Em] [A] [F#m]
No weekly payments you must meet
[D7] [Em] [A]
That makes your hair turn grey!
