RIOT V - Mean Streets (Official Music Video)

Taken off the album “Mean Streets“ (May 10th, 2024) 🎧 Stream, get it here: Bassist Don Van Stavern shares his thoughts on the new album: “We’re more than proud to finally present “Mean Streets“ to the world! It’s an album that we put a lot of passion into for our legacy and fans. Throughout the years, I have learned what the listener expects from the band. We had some time off so we really wanted to make the fans happy with our return. We always write with Mark in mind and what he might have done. This one represents all eras of the band from the rock beginnings of “Rock City“ to our last power metal release “Armor Of Light.“ We always unleash the fire down under!“ ▶ FOLLOW @REIGNING PHOENIX MUSIC 🛒 Web YouTube Instagram Facebook X TikTok Spotify ▶ FOLLOW @RIOT V Web: Facebook: Instagram: Twitter: YouTube: Music & Lyrics: Donald Van Stavern Recorded & mixed by Bruno Ravel Mastered by Bart Gabriel Video produced by Tom Flynn RIOT V is: Don Van Stavern - Bass Mike Flyntz - Guitars Frank Gilchriest - Drums Todd Michael Hall - Vocals Nick Lee - Guitars Lyrics: City streets we meet again Five n’ dime we hung as friends Ruled the streets and didn’t give a damn Dreaming of the times we shared Never cried we didn’t care Hopped the A train and rode on back home Johnny law he knew our names On the streets we had our fame Living life full on without a care Mean streets, take me back again To the place where I became a man Mean streets, take me to my home To the place where we all roamed Sidewalk shuffle was our game Full of spunk and full of flame Never left until the sun went down To L’Amours to get our fix Stroll the Cat club, pick up chicks Memory lane will never be the same Johnny law was on our side Never ran and didn’t hide Living life full on without a care Mean streets, take me back again To the place where I became a man Mean streets, take me to my home To the place where we all roamed Sticks and stones won’t break our bones To the alleys we once owned Siren’s wail was always beckoning Black and blue we did our best Always better than the rest Kickin’ ass and takin’ names again I fought the law and the law won Gave ’em hell and had some fun We’re still dreaming of our crazy times Mean streets, take me back again To the place where I became a man Mean streets, take me to my home To the place where we all roamed Take me back again To the streets where I became a man Take me back to my home To the place where we all roamed ’Cause I’m back on the streets again #RiotV #MeanStreets #RPM #ReigningPhoenixMusic
