Hell's Kitchen was boiling
In the heat of July
Everybody was poor
Everybody was dry
Came down through the street life
Bad blood was in town
They were looking for me
Something had to go down
Cops coming to frame me
Way up on the wall
I had nothing to hide
I had nothing at all
One American misfit
Another criminal face
I wish I'd never been born
In such a dangerous place
Don't say you're sorry
It's just got to be
Don't make it easy
Just put that blame on me
Anger breeds anger
An eye for an eye
Every night the siren's
Like a lonely woman's cry
I can't fight the system
When growing up is my crime
I'm too old to be young
I'm too young to do time
You said things could be different
On the streets of desire
You can't bluff me no more
Now I know you're a liar
Don't say you're sorry
It's just got to be
Don't make it easy
Just put that blame on me
Anger breeds anger
An eye for an eye
Every night the siren's
Like a lonely woman's cry
Red lights are flashing
Just let me close my eyes
Pray tonight they don't find me
Before I say my goodbyes
Don't say you're sorry
It's just got to be
Don't make it easy
Just put that blame on me
Anger breeds anger
An eye for an eye
Every night the siren's
Like a lonely woman's cry
Lonely woman's cry
Hey!
Lonely woman's cry
Hey!
Lonely woman's cry
Just like a lonely woman's cry
Sounds like a lonely woman's cry
