Heart Of The City Songtext

My mama tlod me when I was bornShe said the city is gonna be your soilRaise all eight childrenWork all your lifePray you don't die by some stranger's knife.You're living in the heartYeah, the heart of the cityYeah!We all live on that city floorWinos, widows, hags, and whoresYou butcher bankers and you millionairesWe all know what goes on down there.You're living in the heartYeah, the heart of the cityYou're living in the heartYeah, the heart of the city.Things get tough, I just don't careI let the night time take me anywhereYeah, take me anywhere, I don't care, no.Things get rough, I just don't careI let the night time take me anywhereNo, take me downtown, take me to the heart of the city, baby.No, you tell in your cold slipYour mind has snapped and your heart goes inYou know it's real and it ain't no shitWhen you get down to the heart of it.You're living in the heartYeah, the heart of the cityYeah baby, go down to the heartYeah, the heart of the cityOW!You're living in the heartYeah, the heart of the cityStraight from the heartStraight from the heart of the cityyyyyyyy!
