How Can You Live Like That

歌曲歌詞

Big cities are not the place for me

People are cramped together living in misery

If you walk three blocks at night

You'll be as scared as you can be

There's a guard watching with a gun

As you buy your grocery

How can you live like that

The stores are all closed long before it gets dark

Ladies are afraid to walk alone through the park

You're afraid to go to sleep

When your neighbor's dog let out a bark

Muggers are standing on street corners

Happy as a lark

How can you live like that

You try to park in front on a lighted street

Just to buy some food to carry out to eat

If you ride the public transportation you take a front seat

When you hear the ambulance and the police siren

You know the night's complete

How can you live like that

People have bars on their windows and three locks on the door

Have a pistol under their pillow

And a shotgun on the floor

One thing about crime in the big cities

They rob the rich and kill the poor
