IN THE CITY

sung by: Joe Walsh

Somewhere out on that horizon

Out beyond the neon lights

I know there must be somethin’ 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, oh, oh

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 somethin’ better

And I can’t stay another night

In the city, oh, oh

In the city, oh, oh
In the city, oh, oh…
