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.
Solo
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.
