City`s On Fire

Long John Silver’s got his head in the clouds Sleeping on the concrete and he’s thinking out loud When’s the man gonna bring the candy cane Selling dreams in the city lights A stranger’s kiss is the dead man’s bite It’s a shame when their falling threw the cracks When the sun goes down, that’s when the night rages on When the thrill is gone, that’s when you’ve got to hang on The city’s on fire, Taking life upon demand, passing through the dirty hands The city’s on fire, And it’s time to take it back from the man across the tracks A street smart talker with a gun in his hand, A big John Wayne out to fight for the land Life’s a dare when you’re running with the pack Another day and another crime, One more deal and now you’re doing time, Never learn when you fight the American way When the sun goes down, that’s when the night rages on When the thrill is gone, that’s when you’ve got to hang on The city’s on fire, Taking life upon demand, passing through the dirty hands The city’s on fire, And it’s time to take it back from the man across the tracks The city’s on fire, You know you’ve lost control when you’re selling off your soul The city’s on fire, Stepping closer to the grave, you can’t afford to look away solo pre-chorus chorus 2
