"We Got To Leave" Lyrics

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!
