A Friday night affair
Out in the city heat
Always a party there
Along the sordid street
And it was guaranteed the place to be was Rocketown
The drinks were two for one
Inside the crowded bars
The girls would make their run
Down on the boulevard
It was the idol place, we lived the ways of Rocketown
Hang around by the street light
In the heart of the night life
There came a certain man
A stranger to the crowd
We didn't understand
What he was all about
He walked a different pace, so out of place in Rocketown
They made a fool of him
They teased him when he's speak
But when they knocked him down
He turned the other cheek
He told me I could find a life outside of Rocketown
Hang around by the street light
In the heart of the night life
What was his mission?
Where was he going?
Why was his heart light always glowing?
All I was missing
He stood there holding
What was his secret?
Could I know it?
Some didn't like him near
Some laughed and turned away
But me, I longed to hear
All that he had to say
He had a peace of mind I couldn't find in Rocketown
When I reached down inside me
I could feel the emptiness
What was his mission? (What was his mission?)
Where was he going?
Why was his heart light always glowing?
All I was missing (all I was missing)
He stood there holding
What was his secret?
Could I know it? Yeah
He said it's in the heart
This change that comes to be
Now he had done his part
The choice was up to me
As we were standing there, he said a prayer for Rocketown
As we were standing there, he said a prayer for Rocketown
He walked off silently and prayed for me
And Rocketown
Rocketown
Down at Rocketown
Yeah, yeah, oh-oh
Rocketown
Rocketown
He prayed for me
He prayed for me
Rocketown
Rocketown, yeah
He prayed for me down at Rocketown
He prayed for me down at Rocketown
