city blues

the midnight's down and the sun's all gone in the city

in the city

the sirens are hummin'

everything's so gritty

it's a pity

it's a pity

city blues

all alone and comin' 'round your windowpane

gets me to leave then i'll catch the train and get out

yes i will

city blues

nothing ever seems to come to no good

no

the sky is gray

everybody's gotta pay in the city

in the city

the strange loud people made a mess of the world

it wasn't pretty

it's a pity

city blues

all alone and comin' 'round your windowpane

gets me to leave then i'll catch the train and get out

yes i will

city blues

nothing ever seems to come to no good

no

city blues
