Ugly City - Seals & Crofts

Oh, this ugly city.

I can’t even seem to see the stars up above

Oh, this lonely city.

Where can I go but to the arms of the one I love

She knows me.

We’ve got so many things, I should be so thankful

She’s beautiful, and day by day it just grows and grows

And like the ocean, it just rolls.

While the ugly city grows

But we’re safe my love and me, 'cause our love is like the sea, oh

I once saw a rainbow in Washington.

But only one, then day was done

It lived for just a little while, then the city smiled and it died

Someday I’ll leave this ugly city.

Up and pack my bags and catch me an eastern

bound train

Yes, I’m gonna leave this lonely city.

I’m leaving just as soon as I find my

fortune and fame

Oh this ugly city.

Working a poor man to fill an early grave

Wish it would rain
