Rose Tattoo - City Blues lyrics

It's so hot in the city Makes it hard to stay cool He was restless out in the suburbs So he ran away from school He needed money To keep the game real He's not smart enough for working So he's learning how to steal Thunder and lightning, sweet summer rain Like the seasons pa**ing, is it all just a game? Summer sun heats the city And the warm winds cool the night Sirens tear at the silence As night bird takes flight She came looking for so much. We wept While it pa**ed her by Cause there's so much more to living Than just waiting 'round to die Thunder and lightning, sweet summer rain Like the seasons pa**ing, is love only pain? Hear the sounds in the city She screams and she moans Love is a bell that rings Life is a fleeting thing Once you've heard that music play Magic quickly fades away
