Words & Music: Michael W. Smith and Wayne Kirkpatrick
2
A Friday night affair
3
Out in the city heat
4
Always a party there
5
Along the sordid street
6
And it was guaranteed
7
The place to be was Rocketown
8
The drinks were two for one
9
Inside the crowded bars
10
The girls would make their run
11
Out on the boulevard
12
It was the idol place
13
We lived the ways of Rocketown
14
Hang around by the street light
15
In the heart of the night life
16
There came a certain man
17
A stranger to the crowd
18
We didn't understand
19
What he was all about
20
He walked a different pace
21
So out of place in Rocketown
22
They made a fool of him
23
They teased him when he'd speak
24
But when they knocked him down
25
He'd turn the other cheek
26
He told me I could find
27
A life outside of Rocketown
28
Hang around by the street light
29
In the heart of the night life
30
Chorus:
31
What was his mission
32
Where was he going
33
Why was his heart light
34
Always glowing
35
All I was missing
36
He stood there holding
37
What was his secret
38
Could I know it
39
Some didn't like him near
40
Some laughed and turned away
41
But me, I longed to hear
42
All that he had to say
43
He had a peace of mind
44
I couldn't find in Rocketown
45
And when I reached down inside me
46
I could feel the emptiness
47
Chorus
48
He said it's in the heart
49
This change that comes to be
50
Now he had done his part
51
The choice was up to me
52
As we were standing there
53
He said a prayer for Rocketown
54
As we were standing there
55
He said a prayer for Rocketown
56
He walked off silently
57
And prayed for me
58
And Rocketown...
