| Pogues Waiting For Herb Big City (Darryl Hunt) In the big city Where the lights are low Cold dirty ground Where the rivers don't flow Nothing's gonna change so throw it all away In the big city Where the kids will come cheap And monsters prowl and never sleep Don't cross the road if you haven't got the time of day Well I lost my girl waiting for the train from Ride I know she's out there somewhere Selling all we got but I don't mind In the big city You can walk a thin line Your mother won't know that you do a bit of crime Your father's on the dole and he really hasn't got the time In the big city Where it's hard to see the sky And the black earth trembles when the trains go by And the bums on the corner tell you gently To fuck off and die Well I lost my girl and I missed my train to Ride And I'm stuck here selling papers And spitting on the ground when you walk by In the big city You can dance all night Only if you're clean and the lads are not uptight Or you may as well forget it and wait until the broad daylight In the big city Where the suits don't look you in the eye Learn how to laugh you'll be planning when to die And don't expect any favours from the cars passing by I lost my girl waiting for the train from Ride Well I don't mind matching colours or parking people's cars ANd telling little lies if that's alright In the big city ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
