"Straight Street"
Well I used to live on broadway, right next to the liar's house
My number was self-righteousness and a very little guide of mouth
So I moved, yes I moved, and I'm living on straight street now
Before I moved over, let me tell you how it was with me
Old satan had me bound in chains and I had no liberty
One day my heart got troubled all about my dwelling place
I heard the Lord when He spoke to me, and he told me to leave that place
So I moved, I moved and I'm living on straight street now
Since I moved, I'm really living, I've got peace within
I thank the Lord for everything, so glad I found new friends
Since I moved, I moved, and I'm living on straight street now
