Po' Girl City Song

Crows are roostin' in the old pear tree, rain's coming down like tears
I'm sitting here drinking whiskey, thinking back on all the years
I've been kicking around this town, trying to turn my life around
Hotel rooms and stardust blues and the rain all my pain mixed with fear

Talkin' bout a city, nights are lonely and cold
A town with no pity, don't it make you feel so alone?

Walking down to china town, cops all around and a man on the ground
It's just another day , another game to play in this city of pain
He's just another victim, another lost soul, another statistic to add to the death toll
Another high, another low, another goodbye, another hello

Talkin' bout a city, nights are lonely and cold
A town with no pity, don't it make you feel so alone?
Talkin' bout a city, nights are lonely and cold
A town with no pity, don't it make you feel so alone?

Talked to the man by the shanty town he said "what goes up surely must come down"
Down here with the rats and the crows, down among the littlest hoboes
Maybe one day i'll get out of here, go where the sky is blue and clear
But it'll be a long goodbye, when I leave this town of seagull's cries

Talkin' bout a city, nights are lonely and cold
A town with no pity, don't it make you feel so alone?
Talkin' bout a city, nights are lonely and cold
A town with no pity, don't it make you feel so alone?
