Johnny Hallyday - Rough town lyrics

Your rating:

ROUGH TOWN

Hot night in the city streets

Old papers blowin' 'round my feet

Some dude's got his eyes on you

Better walk quickly down the avenue

Somewhere somebody's baby cries

A new heart beats as another one dies

It ain't easy but you live and learn

If you don't get what you want

You might get what you deserve

It's a rough town

You give it all just to live in fear

No refuge no place to run

Talkin' 'bout a rough town

Gotta find a way to get outta here

Ain't no way around it

It's a rough town

Cold dawn comes with the break of day

Morning sky turns gun metal grey

From an upstairs window there's a woman scream

A nightmare vision from some junkies dream

An angry fist beatin' on an old steel door

Tell me why you here

Who are you lookin' for?

It ain't easy but it ain't for long

This place is crazy

Tell me, hey, where did things go wrong?

It's a rough town

Middle of the night and the street's alive

It's a gamble it's a chance you take

Talkin' 'bout a rough town

Gonna turn your world inside out

Call it what you want but

It's a rough town

2 a.m. I can't get to sleep

I bin lyin' here on these sweat-stained sheets

Beneath my window the city crawls

It's a rat race outside these walls, Oh Yeah!

It's a rough town

You give it all just to live in fear

No refuge no place to run

Gotta find a way to get outta here

Ain't no way around it

It's a rough town

It's a rough town

Middle of the night and the street's alive

It's a gamble it's a chance you take

Talkin' 'bout a rough town

Gonna turn your world inside out

Call it what you want but

It's a rough town
