And we'll walk down the avenue again
And we'll sing all the songs from way back when, yeah
And we'll walk down the avenue again and the healing has begun

And we'll walk down the avenue in style
And we'll walk down the avenue and we'll smile
And we'll say:
"Baby, ain't it all worthwhile when the healing has begun?"

I want you to put on your pretty summer dress
You can wear your Easter bonnet and all the rest
And I wanna make love to you yes, yes, yes
When the healing has begun
"Alright"
When the healing has begun

"Whoe"
"Whoe"
Nananananana, "wheee", "alright", "whooo", "hey", "whoe"

When you hear the music ringin' in your soul
And you feel it in your heart and it grows and grows
And it came from the backstreet Rock & Roll
When the healing has begun
"That's where it comed from, man"

I want you to put on your, your all summery dress
You can wear your Easter bonnet and all the rest
And I wanna make love to you
"Yes, yes"
When the healing has begun, "ai, can't stand myself"

We're gonna make music underneath the stars
We're gonna play to the violin and the two guitars
And we're sit there and play for
Hours and hours when the healing has begun
Hours, hours and hours
When the healing has begun
Hours and hours, hours
When the healing has begun

"Wait a minute, baby, listen, listen"
"I didn't know you stayed up so late"
"Oh you know I just got home from a gig
"And I saw you standing on the street"
"Just let me move on up to this window-sill a lot"
"Yeah, I got some, take some sherry"
"You want a drop of port"
"Let's move behind this door here"
"Let's move on up behind this letter-box behind this door"
"Let's go in your front room"
"Let's play this Muddy Waters record you"
"Got here, if you just open up a little bit"
"And give me some of this backstreet jellyroll"

We're gonna stay out all night long
And then we're gonna go out and roam across the field
Baby, you know how I feel when the healing has begun
When the healing, when the healing has begun
Heeey, the healing has begun
We're gonna stay out all night long
We're gonna dance to the Rock & Roll
When the healing has begun
Ohw baby, just let me ease on a
Little bit, dig this
Backstreet jellyroll
And the healing, healing has begun
Heeeee
And the healing has begun
And the healing, and the healing
