"Get Black" Lyrics

Saving all my pennies up, trying to get some cigarettes

But that's the way I gotta live

And there's a girl sitting on the bus bench

Yelling at the pigeons as the children chase the sun

It's like a movie but there's never any ending

Summer in the city, world is ending this way

That's why I stay so close to the action

A parade just for my satisfaction

'Cause no one knows the reason for giving us

Summer in the city

You better move, you better dance all night long

'Cause I ain't coming home until the crack of dawn

You better get back, get back

'Cause I can feel my blood pumping all night strong

And I can love the way you wanna live

And I can feel your heart beating next to mine

And I can feel the heat coming up the seat

And it's taking me away

Into a place where nobody else is

And we can be and be together at last

And that boy, well, he done lost his old ball

He'll never be right, he's got no hope at all

That's why I pray that the summer never ends

And we can stay here and walk the city forever

'Cause no one knows the reason for giving us

Summer in the city

You better move, you better dance all night long

'Cause I ain't coming home until the crack of dawn

You better get back, get back

'Cause I can feel my blood pumping all night strong

And I can love the way you wanna live

And I can feel your heart beating next to mine

Saving all my pennies up, trying to get some cigarettes

But that's the way I gotta live

And there's a girl sitting on the bus bench

Yelling at the pigeons as the children chase the sun

It's like a movie but there's never any ending

Summer in the city, world is ending this way

That's why I stay so close to the action

A parade just for my satisfaction

'Cause no one knows the reason for giving us

Summer in the city

You better move, you better dance all night long

'Cause I ain't coming home until the crack of dawn

You better get back, get back

'Cause I can feel my blood pumping all night strong

And I can know the way you're gonna learn

And I can feel your heart beating next to mine

You better get back, get back, get back, get back

You better get back, get back, get back, get back

You better get back, get back, get back, get back

You better get back, get back, get back, get back
