Hurt City - Bill Medley

There’s a man downstairs on the corner

Plays an ol flat top guitar

And any song for a quarter

And right now his playing ours

The cars go fast on these freeways

There’s so much glass and chrome

Everything in the world, is at my fingertips

And all I want to do is come home

An I don’t want to live in hurt city no more

There’s a hole in my ceiling, an tears on my floor

Ain’t nothing in the world worth leaving you for

I don’t want to live in hurt city no more

Oh no

Last night I talked to your sister hmm

She said that you were gone

She said I’ll just hang if you call here again

Why don’t you leave her alone

Well

I just wanted to ask you

How much should one heart ache

An why must I pay for the rest of my life

For one foolish mistake, I want to know

(Repeat Chorus)

(Half Verse /Bridge)

Lord these cars go fast on these freeways

There’s so much glass and chrome

There’s millions of people all around me

But all I want to do is come home

Let me come home

(Repeat Chorus)

(Vamp)

I don’t want to live in hurt city

Ain’t nothing in the world

I don’t want to live in hurt city

Oh no, no more

Oh I don’t want to live

I don’t want to live in hurt city

Wo no more
