[Intro]   (2nd Position)   (3rd Position) /           /  / [Verse 1] You tell me this town ain’t got no heart. Well well well you can never tell. The sunny side of the street is dark. Well well well you can never tell. [Bridge 1] Maybe that’s cause it’s midnight And the dark of the moon besides. Maybe the dark is from your eyes (maybe the dark is from your eyes). Maybe the dark is from your eyes (maybe the dark is from your ey    es). Maybe the dark is from your eyes (maybe the dark is from your eyes). You know you got such dark eyes. [Chorus] C7sus4             C7                 C7sus4  C7 Nothin’ shakin’ on Shakedown Street; C7sus4                  C7    C7sus4   C7 used to be the heart of town.       C7sus4                  C7            C7sus4   C7 Don’t tell me this town ain’t got no heart. You just gotta poke around.                [Interlude]   (2nd Position)   (3rd Position) /           /  / [Verse 2] You think you’ve seen this town clear through. Well well well you can never tell. Nothin’ here that could int’rest you. Well well well you can never tell. [Bridge 2] It’s not because you missed out On the things that we had to start. Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast). Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fa    st). Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast). Or just overplayed your part. [Chorus] C7sus4             C7                 C7sus4  C7 Nothin’ shakin’ on Shakedown Street; C7sus4                  C7    C7sus4   C7 used to be the heart of town.       C7sus4                  C7            C7sus4   C7 Don’t tell me this town ain’t got no heart.

I just stopped by ’cause I want to say: Well well well you can never tell. [Bridge 3] I recall your darkness when it Cracked like a thunder cloud.

La chanson évoque un sentiment d'aliénation et de nostalgie face à une ville qui semble avoir perdu son âme. Les paroles suggèrent que, derrière les apparences, il y a toujours une profondeur cachée à découvrir, et que l'on ne doit pas juger une ville sur sa façade. Les yeux sombres de la personne à qui s'adresse le chanteur symbolisent peut-être des blessures ou des souvenirs qui obscurcissent la vision de la beauté environnante. À travers cette mélodie, il y a une invitation à explorer et à croire qu'il y a encore de la vie et du cœur à trouver, même dans les endroits qui semblent délaissés. Les allusions au temps qui passe et aux expériences manquées renforcent cette notion de recherche de ce qui se cache derrière une apparente monotonie.
