All manner of life is down in the city
All manner of life is down in the city
All manner of life is around
All manner of life is around
All manner of life is down in the city.
We've got some real fine people with messed up clothes
in the city
We've got some messed up people with real fine clothes
in the city
So shake some hands
and some shake yours
But count your fingers and count your toes
I hope I die before I get sold
in the city.
I've never met a woman I did not like
in the city
I've never liked a woman I did not meet
in the city
All people, lost and found
overground and underground
Uptown, downtown
I belong to the city
I work so hard, so hard, so hard
So hard I can't stand it,
it's not like I planned it
Not like it at all
I go the north, the south
the east, the west of my city
I know it's my city
I know it's my home
