about

This is based on a true story.

lyrics

Dressed to depressed but feeling pretty
a no one in the suburbs and even more so in the city
Lying on the curb with no place to go
Feelin’ like Chicago just kicked me in the throat

I’ve got a little less than nothing to my name
Hung over, no plan and no place to stay

Nothing’s easy
For a stranger in the city

Now I'm looking for a friend who can’t be found
Last year the drug squad had to take him down
Honey if I’m the sugar in your scotch,
Then darlin’ you’re my excuse to the cops

yeah from the rails Union looks alright
until you’re fucking sleeping otuside

First train home? You bet I’m ready
No mercy for a misfit in the city
Don't you Leave me
In the City

And When Summer Comes
I'll be on the run
and getting out of my head with you,
Your long dark hair, and eyes of blue.

But Don't You Leave Me In The City
