Where the streets start getting wide
Well, you're movin' on down on the other side of the tracks
Once you cross that line, baby, there ain't no turning back
For some reason I don't ever want to see that place
That's where the action is, hey yeah
You hear the stories, you hear the lies
You hear the rumours, they criticize
They call you everything under the moon
And then they try to buy you with diamonds and rings and things
Well, move over, baby, gonna help you out of this mess
By the look of your face, well, you've been in it before, I guess
You're hangin' around like some kind of parasite or pest
And I just wanna tell you, come on, let's go
I know a place where it never grows
I know a place where the thing is, is
Well, I'm gonna tell you where the action is
Your mama's told you about whiskey and she's told you about beer
Well, shit they're drinkin' here, man, it don't nothing on that here
It turns you into a monster, it turns your mind insane
It does things to you where you won't never come back again
I don't care what your disposition is, I don't care what's your name
I'm gonna tell you where the action is
Look at you dressed in your debutante dress and your funny eyelashes
Walking around like you just walked out of some fucking car crash
You think that you're okay 'cause you're
Lookin' like you're gonna have a smash
With the action
Well, I don't care where you're goin', I don't care what you say
What your religion is, baby, I just wanna tell you where the action is
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Take off that wedding ring, babe, you're not gonna need it anymore
Take off that dress, girl, and throw it out the door
Take off those phoney makeup and those eyelashes I saw
Take off your shoes and your hat and throw the whole fuckin' lot
Right out the door
Come over here and lend me your ear
I'm gonna tell you where the action is
I don't care if you can read a book or if you can write
I don't care how long your hair is or how bright
I don't care about much to tell you the truth, but that's alright
I only care is if you're gonna come on
Like you think you're with the action
I got only one thing to say: come here, darlin', kiss me
And I'll show you where the action is
You spend a little dollar and you spend a little dime
You get all funny and you laugh with your friends
And you think you're having a good time
You don't know nothin' till you come 'round here and have some of mine
Then you'll start to understand about the two sides of the line
Come over here, darlin', lend me your ear
Gonna educate you, gonna tell you where the action is
