"Streets of London" is a song written by Ralph McTell. It was first recorded for McTell's 1969 album Spiral Staircase but was not released in the United Kingdom as a single until 1974. It was his greatest commercial success, reaching number two in the UK singles chart, at one point selling 90,000 copies a day and winning him the Ivor Novello Award and a Silver disc for record sales.

It translates well into a protest song against the senseless riots 2011. I love the song. I despise the rioters who hurt and maim the strugglers trying to get by, complaining that they lack educational opportunity or respect.
