The midnight's down and the sun's all gone in the city
In the city
The sirens are hummin', everything's so gritty
It's a pity, it's a pity
[Chorus:]
Yeah, woah
City Blues - all alone and comin' 'round your windowpane
Oh...
Gets me to leave then I'll catch the train and get out-yes I will
City Blues-nothing ever seems to come to no good
No
The sky is gray - everybody's gotta pay in the city
In the city
The strange loud people made a mess of the world-it wasn't pretty
It's a pity
[Chorus 2x]
