In The City

Somewhere out on that horizon

Out beyond the neon lights

I know there must be something better

But there's nowhere else in sight.

Wo-oh-oh-oh

It's survival in the city, children

When you live from day to day

City streets don't have much pity, no

When you're down that's where you stay

In the city

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

Far away from the neon sky

I know there must be something, must be something better

And I can't stay another night

In the city
