in the city |
|
Somewhere out there on that horizon |
|
Out beyond the neon lights |
|
I know there must be something better |
|
but there's nowhere else in sight |
|
It's survival in the city |
|
When you live from day to day |
|
City streets don't have much pity |
|
When you're down, that's where you'll stay |
|
In the city, oh, oh. |
|
In the city |
|
I was born here in the city |
|
With my back against the wall |
|
Nothing grows, and life ain't very pretty |
|
No one's there to catch you when you fall |
|
Somewhere out on that horizon |
|
Faraway from the neon sky |
|
I know there must be something better |
|
And I can't stay another night |
|
In the city, oh, oh. |
|
In the city |
