"ELECTRIC CITY"

WHEN I ENTERED ELECTRIC CITY
ALL THEM LIGHTS WERE BLINDING ME
MET MY FRIEND JUAN DOWN THE ALLEY
GOT AN 8 AN 8TH AND A CIG

ONCE MY EYES BECAME ADJUSTED
TO THE ELECTRIC SWING OF THINGS
I JUST COULDN'T MOVE MY FOCUS
OFF OF SUCH A PRETTY THING

SUCH A PRETTY THING

THERE AIN'T NO HOMELESS
HURTING VAGRANTS
ON THE ELECTRIC CITY STREETS
ONLY PATRONS SLEEPING ON PAVEMENT
PRAYING TO GOD FOR SOMETHING TO EAT

WHILE THE BIG MAN IN THE COURTHOUSE
HIS POCKETS ONLY GET MORE FULL
WHILE I'M SLEEPING IN THE WALMART
PARKING LOT ON MY LAST BOWL

IN ELECTRIC CITY

LADY LUCK'S NEVER LET HIM DOWN
LADY LUCK'S NEVER LET HIM DOWN

IN ELECTRIC CITY
