Hard to Live (In the City) Songtext

von Albert Hammond, jr.

Well it's hard to live, it's hard to live in the city
Yes it's hard to live, so hard to live in the city

I've been following you for blocks and I wish that you'd stop and tell me your name
But I couldn't understand what you told me as you ran away

So just lay your head down low,
Don't let anybody know
That it's hard to live, it's hard to live in the city
Yes it's hard to live, it's hard to live in the city

There's something about you that I couldn't tell
And you were always crazy
And I don't like that

There's something about you, that I knew so well
Tell those questions I have no answer
I wish that I could sit in the sun

So just lay your head down low,
Don't let anybody know
That it's hard to live, it's hard to live in the city
Yes it's hard to live, so hard to live in the city

What are you asking?
No need for walking out
You took all I could keep
You couldn't tell me
The look was on your face
I think that we have left

Tell those questions I have no answer
I wish that I could sit in the sun
