Billy Joel – Big Man On Mulberry Street Lyrics  Share

From Billy Joel's album: The Bridge

Why can^,t I lay low
Why can^,t I say what I mean
Why don^,t I stay home
And get myself into some boring routine

Why can^,t I calm down
Why is it always a fight
I can^,t get unwound
Why do I throw myself into the night

I^,m on the outside
I don^,t fit into the groove
Now I ain^,t a bad guy
So tell me what am I trying to prove

Why can^,t I cool out
Why don^,t I button my lip
Why do I lash out
Why is it I always shoot from the hip

I cruise from Houston to canal street
A misfit and a rebel
I see the winds talking to themselves
And I can understand
Why is it everytime I go out
[ Big Man On Mulberry Street lyrics from

I always seem to get in trouble
I guess I made an impression on somebody
North of hester and south of grand

And so in my small way
I^,m a big man on Mulberry street
I don^,t mean all day
Only at night when I^,m light on my feet

What else have I got
That I^,d be trying to hide
Maybe a blind spot
I haven^,t seen from the sensitive side

But you know in my own heart
I^,m a big man on Mulberry street
I play the whole part
I leave a big tip with every receipt

I^,m so romantic
I^,m such a passionate man
Sometimes I panic
What if nobody finds out who I am
