I live on the West side, she lives on the East side of the stree-ee-eet

    Dm                                     Bb
And though they say that East is East, and West is West,

                          F   F7
and never the twain shall meet

     Bb                 A           Bb                     A
Each morning I face her window, and pray that our love can be

           Dm                        Bb
Cause that brownstone house where my baby lives

   Dm                          A                       Dm
is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e.

Oh, she's my dream goddess, and her ruby lips are so div-i-ine

    Dm                   Bb                  C
And though her folks say we're too young, to know of love,

                 F
I worship at her shrine

     Bb                 A           Bb                     A
Each morning I face her window, and pray that our love can be

           Dm                        Bb
Cause that brownstone house where my baby lives

   Dm                          A                       Dm
is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e.
