Heart of the City - Dave Edmunds

Well in the heart of the city

Where the alligator roam

L’m a little lost lamb

Ain’t got no place to go

Now I ain’t got one minute

Just got a shirt on my back

L left home in a hurry

Well I ain’t never going back

I’m looking for a home

In the heart of the city

Now I’m stepping on the street

And I’m stepping up the air

Yeah, I’m looking for a lover

Looking, looking everywhere

Maybe I met with a chance

I hear clickety clack

It’s a girl my lord

I see her

Stop

Check

Turn and double back

I’m looking for a lover

In the heart of the city

I’m looking

I’m looking

I’m looking

I’m looking

I’m looking, looking, looking, looking, looking everywhere

In the heart of tbe city

Well in the heart of the city

Well it’s part of the stars

L hear that cast set music

On a thousand guitars

Hey;

the boys are on the prowl

They’re checking the meat

They know a bird in the hand

Is worth two on the street

They’re checking the meat

In the heart of the city

Well I said the heart, heart of the city

Oh yeah

Heart, heart of the city
