Fogtown Songtext

It was a red sun rising early in this ghetto A full moon was rising late last night But you would not know, no you was fast asleeping You only see this city in the broad daylight In the broad daylight Fogtown Fogtown, I'm down and out on your streets I would run if I only had a place to run to Oh Fogtown Her name was Ruby Red She was a two-bit hooker She had a man named Juan He tried to keep her clean But late last night when the heroin took her There was one less siren when the sirens reached the scene Reached the scene Fogtown Fogtown, I'm down and out on your streets I would run if I only had a place to run to Oh Fogtown When a city's got the charms of a painted lady When survival bites like a black-haired bitch You can find yourself on the closest corner You want to stay, you want to go, you got the Fogtown itch You got the Fogtown itch Fogtown Fogtown, I'm down and out on your streets I would run if I only had a place to run to Oh Fogtown Gonna be the death of me Death of me It was a red sun rising early in this ghetto A full moon was rising late last night But you would not know, no you was fast asleeping You only see this city in the broad daylight In the broad daylight In the broad daylight
