Risk - Skid Row lyrics

Beg steal borrow desire A child's heart seemed to expire No denying a city's a jungle Rats in the backyard Big city, hopeless and rough A child's life stone-cold and tough Little sneaker, alley sleeper Prince of the backyard No career, no tomorrow A child's day of hunger and sorrow All dreams lost and decayed In the dirt of the backyard Kid from skid row Tough heart, Hobo Backstreet boy Got no joy But knows how to Cheat on you Kid from skid row Backyard, black heart Kid from skid row Tough heart, Hobo
