City's Burning

Cities burning
City's burning
She look for love songs, he buys the drive
He want to get high and she want to get paid
Cities burning
City's burning, burning, burning, burning, burning, ohh

City's burning
City's burning

Ooh mama, mama, mama, tell me what to do?
He wanted to kill and she wanted to die
City's burning

Young man is angry, girl is afraid

But he turns left and she turns right
Cities burning

Cities burning

She had to jump up, he had to sit down
When they heard those words about the trouble downtown
Aah daddy you better pull us through

City's burning
Daddy, you better pull us through
Ooh mama, tell me what to do?
City's burning
Cities burning
He had to shout, she had to cry
City's burning

But all they can pull is bad news in tonight
Cities burning
Grab for the dial, tune out the fright

Cities burning, burning, burning, burning
