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, I moved
and I'm living on straight street now
I moved, I had moved
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
Yes, I moved, I moved, well
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
I moved, I had moved
and I'm living on straight street now
I'm living on straight street now
Yes, I moved, I had moved
I'm living on straight street now
