Hot night in the city streets Old papers blowin' 'round my feet Some dude's got heis eyes on you Better walk quickly down the avenue Somewhere somebody's baby cries A new heart beats as another one dies It ain't easy but you live and learn If you don't get what you want You might get what you deserve It's a rough town You give it all just to live in fear No refuge no place to run Talkin' 'bout a rough town Gotta find a way to get outta here Ain't no way around it It's a rough town Cold dawn comes with the break of day Morning sky turns gun metal grey From an upstairs window there's a woman scream A nightmare vision from some junkes dream An angry fist beatin' on an old steel door Tell me why you here Who are you lookin' for ? It ain't easy but it ain't for long This place is crazy Tell me, hey, where did things go wrong ? It's a rough town Middle of the night and the street's alive It's a gamble it's a chance you take Talkin' 'bout a rough town Gonna turn your world inside out Call it what you want but It's a rough town 2 a.m. I can't get to sleep I bin lyin' here on these sweat-stained sheets Beneath my window the city crawls It's a rat race outside these walls, oh Yeah ! It's a rough town You give it all just to live in fear No refuge no place to run Gotta find a way to get outta here Ain't no way around it It's a rough town It's a rough town Middle of the night and the street's alive It's a gamble it's a chance you take Talkin' 'bout a rough town Gonna turn your world inside out Call it what you want but It's a rough town.
