Q&A
In The City Lyrics
You were sleeping on a side walk
living on a road
living on a road
thats from where you started
dont forget that hunger
cause that road
is the way back home
You were fighting for a sidewalk
that you called your own
that you called your own
You got all the money
but you are no longer
living in
living in
In the City
where the lights were just
bright enough
and the walls and the smells always kept you
on the ground
on the ground
In the city
with nothing to lose
and hoping to win
you were living in, living in, living
In the city
Lots of people from the sidewalk
are in the hall of fame
in the hall of fame.
Theyve never forgotten
where they all got started
cause they know
its the way back home
You were dreaming on the sidewalk
fighting for your name
fighting for your name
You got all the money
but you are no longer
living in
living in
Chorus
living on a road
living on a road
thats from where you started
dont forget that hunger
cause that road
is the way back home
that you called your own
that you called your own
You got all the money
but you are no longer
living in
living in
where the lights were just
bright enough
and the walls and the smells always kept you
on the ground
on the ground
In the city
with nothing to lose
and hoping to win
you were living in, living in, living
In the city
are in the hall of fame
in the hall of fame.
Theyve never forgotten
where they all got started
cause they know
its the way back home
fighting for your name
fighting for your name
You got all the money
but you are no longer
living in
living in

Great Song! When it first came out, I was listening to it everyday.
Have you heard "when the party's over" and "The Old Field of Angels" ? ?
