(opening instrumental--chiefly Indian fakir's flute)

|
I live on the West side, she lives on the East side of the stree-ee-eet
|
And though they say that East is East and West is West
|
And never the twain shall meet
|
Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be
|
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives
|
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
|
And though her folks say we're too young to know of love
|
I worship at her shrine
|
Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be
|
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives
|
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e.

(instrumental interlude-chiefly guitar)
|
|
Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be
|
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives
|
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e.
