It's raining down sorrow and nothing but bad news You know I've had it up to here Living with these blues But I won't let it get me down It's not the only game in town In my mind, I'm goin to Swing Street. I'm a dreamer on a rough road And I need to hear the music once again When there's nothing but bad news I've got a way to beat the blues I close my eyes, and I go to Swing Street.

In the liner notes for Swing Street, Barry Manilow refers to his wish to record a "techno-swing album. From the first few notes of its title track, the album seems like music made for an audience of mannequins.
