|
Lost in the shuffle |
|
The hustle and bustle of the city |
|
Just a sweet young girl |
|
In a knockdown world, such a pity |
|
Well she never worried, growin` up in a hurry |
|
No one showed her the right |
|
She met a man, he took her hand one nite |
|
Out on the street all the people you meet |
|
Wanna use you for your innocent ways |
|
Runnin` around you`re the talk of the town today |
|
You were so cool you never played by the rules |
|
You thought you had it in the palm of your hand |
|
You`re on your way to the top and they won`t let you stop |
|
`Till you`re there, now you`re |
|
Under the gun |
|
Out on the run |
|
Paying the price with your flesh and your blood |
|
It`s bringin` you down |
|
Livin` your life, under the gun |
|
Under the lights, you`re feelin` the bite |
|
Of big city days and big city nites |
|
Now you`re alone, you wanna go home, but you can`t |
|
You`re goin` outta your head, they`re in and outta your bed |
|
You`re losin` sight of what you thought was the truth |
|
They`ll string you along `til you`re tattered and torn |
|
Then along comes somebody new, when you`re |
|
Chorus |
|
You were on the top but now you`re runnin` out of time |
|
Open your eyes |
|
Now you`re under the gun |
|
Under the gun |
|
Chorus |
