Lyrics: |
This old city where I live is poor and dirty | ||
| Work I do, it barely pays the bills | |||
| This old city, it is home to stupid bastards I used to know | |||
| Lucky me, I'm too drunk to remember their names | |||
| This old city has had its fill of rock 'n roll stars | |||
| You can find them anywhere | |||
| They're hanging out in the back of some bar | |||
| Or they're walking around town exposing heroin scars | |||
| This old city where I live is poor and dirty | |||
| Work I do, it barely pays the bills | |||
| This old city, it is home to pissed off bastards I used to know | |||
| Lucky me, I'm too drunk to remember their names | |||
| Lyrics based on Drunken Confessions version. | |||
