[Verse]
Baby, don't you cry
Baby, I'll sing you a lullaby

[Pre Chorus]
We're walking down the street of chance
Where the chances are always slim or none
And the intentions unjust

[Chorus]
Baby, there's nothing to see
I've already been down the street of chance

[Verse]
Baby, you're so clean
Baby, please stay clean

[Pre Chorus]
We're walking down the street of chance
Where the chances are always slim or none
And the intentions unjust

[Chorus]
Baby, there's nothing to see
I've already been down the street of chance

[Verse]
Baby, you're so young
Baby, please stay young

[Pre Chorus]
We're walking down the street of chance
Where the chances are always slim or none
And the intentions unjust

[Chorus]
Baby, there's nothing to see
I've already been down the street of chance
Baby, don't you cry
Baby, I've already cried

[Outro]
We're walking down the street of chance
The chances are always slim or none
And the intentions unjust [x3]

After his previous band, The Stooges collapsed, Iggy Pop (the stage name of James Newell Osterberg, Jr.) initially struggled to establish a solo career. Working with David Bowie in Berlin helped him produce The Idiot and Lust For Life, essential albums which made him a household name.
