City in Heat

There's a tumult on the side street
And you wake up with a bang
It's a Tom and Huck version
Of a ghetto gang

The natives are restless
There's a war dance on
They've been beating the cans all morning long

City in heat
It's like a carnival
Down in the street
City in heat
If you got the revenue
You got it beat
Bad beat down

When the tight skirts start to wiggle
And the women got their cheeks sucked in
There's a fistful of trouble
From the corner din

There's a push and shove
For a piece of the action
If you don't put out, you can't get no satisfaction

City in heat
It's like a carnival
Down in the street
City in heat
If you got the revenue
You got it beat
Bad beat down

City in heat
It's like a carnival
Down in the street
City in heat
If you got the revenue
You got it beat
Bad beat down

City in heat
It's like a carnival
Down in the street
City in heat
If you got the revenue
You got it beat
Bad beat down

City in heat
It's like a carnival
Down in the street
City in heat
If you got the revenue
You got it beat
Bad beat down
