On the North side of town, where the cold winds always blow   Peoples faces are hard, you see no one that you know   And on the South side of town all the bad boys are carrying guns   They're always screaming and swearing, they even got the cops on the run      This city is full of lonely hearts   And all the gutters are filled with broken parts   We got to get away, and make a brand new start   We got to get away, before it falls apart      You and me, you and me   We can still make it, yeah we got to leave      On the West side of town they say the streets are lined with gold   But the all the peoples tongues are turning black from the lies they told   On the East side of town you can hear someone's baby cry   And when the kid grows up he's going to turn into a mean old guy      The city is full of lonely hearts   And all the gutters are filled with broken parts   We got to get away, and make a brand new start   We got to get away, before it falls apart      You and me, you and me   We can still make it, yeah we got to leave!   You and me, you and me   We can still make it, yeah we got to leave!      This city is full of lonley hearts   And all the gutters are filled with broken parts   We got to get away, and make a brand new start   We got to get away, before it falls apart      (Dirty old city)   This city is full of lonely hearts   And all the gutters are filled with broken parts   We got to get away, and make a brand new start   We got to get away, before it falls apart      You and me, you and me   We can still make it, yeah we got to leave!
