Takin’ It To The Streets Lyrics By The Doobie Brothers

    you don’t know me but i’m your brother
    i was raised here in this living hell
    you don’t know my kind in your world
    fairly soon the time will tell

    oh you telling me the things
    you’re gonna do for me
    i ain’t blind and i don’t like
    what i think i see

    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    no more need for running
    taking it to the streets

    take this message to my brother
    you will find him everywhere
    wherever people live together
    tied in poverty’s despair

    oh you telling me the things
    you’re gonna do for me
    i ain’t blind and i don’t like
    what i think i see

    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    no more need for running
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the

    oh you telling me the things
    you’re gonna do for me
    i ain’t blind and i don’t like
    what i think i see

    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    no more need for running
    taking it to the streets
    yeah yeah

    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    before it steps farther
    taking it to the streets
    oh lord

    taking it to the streets
    taking it taking it
    taking it to the streets
    hey yeah ha
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    taking it to the streets
    no more need for running
    taking it to the streets
    no more need for hiding

    taking it to the streets
    yeah yeah yeah
    taking it to the streets
    no more
    taking it to the streets
    yeah yeah
    taking it to the streets
    taking it taking it
    taking it to the streets
