Lyrics
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
 
Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
 
A singer in a smoky room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
 
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
 
Lyrics
Working hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time
 
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
 
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
 
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
repeat and fade ...

Nothing about the end of that series can be anything more than educated guesswork. It would be just as much of a "major spoiler" to say he quit the organization and lived a long and happy life - no one will ever know.

I never much liked this song and I don't think I've ever heard it straight through, beginning to end, but I still got 100%. I think we can call that conclusive proof that that song was overplayed, no?

That was the last one I got. I had to listen to the song twice to figure it out. Fill makes sense since it rhymes with thrill.

Ah, the official anthem of obnoxious drunk girls in bars. "Eerrrrr my gaawwwd....it's OUR SONG! This is OUR SONG!! Where's Becky? Get Becky! They're playing OUR SONG!" We know. It is played at every bar, every Saturday night, in every city in America. Also, if you plan to head to South Detroit, bring a change of clothes. Because you are in the lake.

Sorry. I know a lot of people love this song, and I have nothing against the song itself, but it has been forever tainted for me by idiots.

Have to disagree on that point. I have a couple of good friends who claim to be from "South Detroit." One is from Lincoln Park area, the other from Windsor, ON. You've got to go about 30 miles south of Detroit before you hit lake Erie...

Your friends can claim anything but there is no "south Detroit". Detroit has an east side and a west side. There is also southwest Detroit.

Steve Perry wrote the song after a concert watching a couple on a train at a mall in Southfield, MI. Ironically Southfield is north of Detroit.

Love that song.

Here in Spain it isn't popular at all, specially among my generation.

Glad I found it :)
