City blues Lyrics

(B. Wilson/Additional Lyrics by Scott Bennett)
with Eric Clapton

Ooooooh

The midnight's down and the sun's all gone in the city
In the city
The sirens are hummin', everything's so gritty
It's a pity, it's a pity

chorus;
Yeah, woah
City Blues—all alone and comin' 'round your windowpane
Oh . . .
Gets me to leave then I'll catch the train and get out—yes I will
City Blues—nothing ever seems to come to no good
No

The sky is gray—everybody's gotta pay in the city
In the city
The strange loud people made a mess of the world—it wasn't pretty
It's a pity

repeat chorus (2x)
