Long John |
|
Silver's got his head in the clouds |
|
Sleeping on the concrete and he's thinking out loud |
|
When's the man gonna bring the candy cane |
|
Selling dreams in the city lights |
|
A stranger's kiss is the dead man's bite |
|
It's a shame when their falling threw the cracks |
|
When the sun goes down, that's when the night rages on |
|
When the thrill is gone, that's when you've got to hang on |
|
The city's on fire, |
|
Taking life upon demand, passing through the dirty hands |
|
The city's on fire, |
|
And it's time to take it back from the man across the tracks |
|
A street smart talker with a gun in his hand, |
|
A big John |
|
Wayne out to fight for the land |
|
Life's a dare when you're running with the pack |
|
Another day and another crime, |
|
One more deal and now you're doing time, |
|
Never learn when you fight the |
|
American way |
|
When the sun goes down, that's when the night rages on |
|
When the thrill is gone, that's when you've got to hang on |
|
The city's on fire, |
|
Taking life upon demand, passing through the dirty hands |
|
The city's on fire, |
|
And it's time to take it back from the man across the tracks |
|
The city's on fire, |
|
You know you've lost control when you're selling off your soul |
|
The city's on fire, |
|
Stepping closer to the grave, you can't afford to look away solo pre-chorus chorus 2 |
