Livin' In the City
Yeah bells are ringing on your alarm clock
It's six in the morning, man the race don't stop
I just shit, shower, shave, make it to the station
Waiting for the train, god damn the train late again
Hit the streets and they are seething,
Duck and weave, begging, stealing
Got no kneeling and your feeling,
That you want it more
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
Hey you know I never said it would be pretty.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
Well I head to the office and delete my spam.
What be, delete my plans.
Working everyday for the god damn man.
Sometimes I wonder just who I am.
Where I'm gonna go, don't know.
Gonna have a dental.
"?" then I'm gonna move coastal.
Everything gonna be just fine, working every day on my gold mine.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
Hey you know I never said it would be pretty.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
{SOLO}
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
Hey you know I never said it would be pretty.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
Hey you know I never said it would be pretty.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
It's six in the morning, man the race don't stop
I just shit, shower, shave, make it to the station
Waiting for the train, god damn the train late again
Hit the streets and they are seething,
Duck and weave, begging, stealing
Got no kneeling and your feeling,
That you want it more
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
Hey you know I never said it would be pretty.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.

They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
Hey you know I never said it would be pretty.
That's how it goes, livin' in the city.
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty.
They don't look back, they don't take no pity.
