Lyrics Jackie Wilson

Jackie Wilson

No Pity (in The Naked City)

Hmm, hmmm, there's no pity in the naked city, yeah

When you're all alone

And all your hard-earned money's gone

There just ain't no pity

No no no, in the naked city, yeah

Help me now, hmm mmmm

You'll go walking down Broadway

Watching people catch the subway

Take it from me

Don't ask for a helping hand

'Cause no one will understand

Ahhh, there's no pity

No no no, in the naked city, yeah

Ohhh help me now, mmm mmmm

Folks there's no no? nice

It's the only place I know where hearts turn to ice

You can? neighbor next door

Or smile at someone?

Don't live there no more

Bright lights will find you

And they will mess you around

Let me tell you

Millions will watch you

Have mercy now

As you sink right down to the ground

I found no pity, no no no, in the naked city, yeah

Come on help me now

There's no pity!

No no no, in the naked city, yeah
