Heart of the City

We're in the heart of the city Where the alligator roam I'm a little lost lamb Ain't got no place to go Now, I ain't got one penny Just got a shirt on my back I left home in a hurry And I ain't never goin' back I'm lookin' for a home in the heart of the city Now I'm a steppin' on the street And I'm a steppin' off the end And I'm lookin' for a lover A-lookin', lookin' everywhere Maybe I'm in with a chance I hear a clickety-clack It's a girl, my Lord I see her stop, check, turn and double back I'm lookin' for a lover in the heart of the city I'm lookin' I'm lookin' I'm lookin' I'm lookin' I'm lookin', lookin', lookin', lookin', lookin' everywhere In the heart of the city We're in the heart of the city We're in a part of the stars I hear the crash of music From a thousand guitars And the boys are on the prowl Oh, they're checkin' the beat They know a bird in the hand Is worth two on the street They're checkin' on neat in the heart of the city I said the heart, heart Of the city Heart, heart, oh yeah Heart, heart Of the city Heart, heart Say it now Heart, heart
