《Dirty City》歌词

[00:00:01] Dirty City - Steve Winwood

[00:00:46] The gangster came to see by boy

[00:00:50] When I was working nights to pay one more bill

[00:01:01] He promised the kid a sweeter life

[00:01:04] Said "Gotta understand it's dog eat dog out there"

[00:01:16] Well I looked in his room when I got home

[00:01:19] And underneath the covers found a loaded gun

[00:01:31] He looked at me with empty eyes

[00:01:34] He said "It's time for me to be moving on"

[00:01:47] Dirty city this is a dirty town

[00:02:02] Where's the pity I can't move on up to higher ground

[00:02:23] I spoke to my woman the other day

[00:02:26] She said "I need more cash we can't pay our way"

[00:02:38] She said "Everything gets really hard

[00:02:41] And I need something sweet don't you understand "

[00:02:52] The roar of the train runs by my room

[00:02:56] And on these summer nights I can't sleep anymore

[00:03:07] I walk in the streets to greet the dawn

[00:03:11] Or stay at home all night and stare at the floor

[00:03:24] Dirty city this is a dirty town

[00:03:39] Where's the pity I can't move on up to higher ground

[00:03:53] Dirty city this is a dirty town

[00:04:08] Where's the pity I can't move on up to higher ground

[00:04:30] Help me now

[00:04:35] Move on to a higher ground

[00:04:44] Help somehow

[00:04:49] Make a move to a higher ground

[00:04:58] Won't you help somehow

[00:05:04] Make a move to a higher ground

[00:05:13] Won't you help somehow

[00:05:19] I need a little help

[00:05:29] Dirty city this is a dirty town

[00:05:44] Where's the pity I can't move on up to higher ground

[00:05:53] Ground higher ground

[00:05:59] Dirty city this is a dirty town

[00:06:14] Where's the pity I can't move on up to higher ground

[00:06:22] Ground higher ground

[00:06:29] Dirty city this is a dirty town

[00:06:36] Where's the pity I can't move on up to higher ground
