Fogtown Lyrics

There was a red sun rising early in this ghetto			
Full moon was rising late last night				
But you would not know, no you were fast asleep			
You only see the city in the broad daylight 			
In the broad daylight 						
Fogtown, fogtown, down and out on your streets			
I would run if I only had a place to run to 			
In old Fogtown							 

Her name was Ruby Red, she was a two-bit hooker			
She had a man named Juan who 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, down and out on your streets			
I would run if I only had a place to run to 			
Old Fogtown							 

Well the city's got the charms of a painted lady		
And survival bites like a black-headed  bitch			
You can find yourself on the closest corner			
You wanna stay, you wanna go you've got the Fogtown itch	
You've got the Fogtown itch					
Fogtown, fogtown, on down and out on your streets		
I would run if I only had a place to run 			
To old Fogtown  						
You're gonna be the death of me					
Death of me							 

There was a red sun rising early in this ghetto			
Full moon was rising late last night				
But you would not know, no you were fast asleep			
You only see the city in the broad daylight 			
In the broad daylight
