In the City

[Verse 1]
Somewhere out there on that horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be something better
But there's nowhere else in sight

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
In the city (oh, oh)
In the city (oh, ohhh)

[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
Somewhere out on that horizon
Far away from the neon sky
I know there must be something better
And I can't stay another night

[Chorus]
In the city (oh, oh)
In the city (oh, ohhh)

[Outro]
In the city
In the city
In the city (oh, ohhh)
