Heart Of The City

We're in the heart of the city
Where the alligator roams
I'm a little lost lamb
Ain't got no place to go
I ain't got one penny
Just got a shirt on my back
I left home in a hurry
I ain't never going back

I'm looking for a home in the heart of the city

Well, I'm a-standin' on the street
And I'm a steppin' up the hill
Yeah, I'm looking for a lover
Looking, looking everywhere
Maybe I'm in with a chance
I hear a clickety-clack
There'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 everywhere
In the heart of the city

Ow!

We're in the heart of the city
In the heart of the stars
I hear the crash of music
Of a thousand guitars
And the boys are on the prowl
And they're checking on me
They know a bird in the hand
Is worth two out on the streets

They're checking on me in the heart of the city

Oh, heart, heart of the city
Heart, heart, ooh yeah
Heart, heart of the city
Heart, heart, ooh yeah
Heart, heart of the city
Heart, heart, ooh yeah
Heart, heart of the city
Heart, heart, ooh yeah
Heart, heart
