Sightseer in the middle of the night
Looking for action, something real tight
But can you make it when we turn on the lights
Of the city?
Street walker in the middle of the day
Been up all night trying to earn your pay
Mama, told you when you ran away
Its not easy, theres no pity in the city
Ive been on this corner so long
But its no ones guess whos the next blonde
But before you know it, itll be gone
But I aint complaining, dont get me wrong
Its not easy in the city
Street walker in the middle of your life
Every day is like shooting dice
You carry yourself like you carry a knife
In the city
Fast talker in the middle of the street
Trying to hustle everyone that you meet
Sooner or later everybody gets beat
Its not easy, theres no pity in the city
