The City is Hungry
Bruce Cockburn
The city's hungry
Hear that rumblin' under ground
The city's hungry
Hear that rumblin' under ground
You better think twice
Before you go downtown
Man on a park bench
Face in a paper sack
Man on a park bench
Face in a paper sack
Look at him flyin'
Above those tall smoke stacks
River wrapped in concrete
Hills made to stand in chains?
River wrapped in concrete
Hills made to stand in chains?
Ain't the city pretty
Shines like tear drops when it rains
The city's hungry
Hear that rumblin' under ground
The city's hungry
Hear that rumblin' under ground
My baby grabs me
She starts to dance around
She starts to dance around
She starts to dance around
