Sweat Soaked City

Sweat-soaked city Night life in a working class town Sweat-soaked city To feel up we go downtown Sweat-soaked city Don't let the work day get us down Night life night life in a working class town They're playing good time music In a town that's fallen on bad times Deflated dollars deflated pride And dwindling dreams This is the only place in town with a band And this band pile drives a backbeat To drive away the ringing in their ears From the sound of machines Sweat-soaked city Night life in a working class town Sweat-soaked city To feel up we go downtown Sweat-soaked city Don't let the work day get us down Night life night life in a working class town In the corner young alcohooligans Are acting like fools again For some couples love Turns this into a place for romance There's an old couple trying to find a fox-trot feel In some small town hard rock rhythm Work day's load is put down The feeling's light it's time to dance Sweat-soaked city Night life in a working class town Sweat-soaked city To feel up we go downtown Sweat-soaked city Don't let the work day get us down Night life night life in a working class town Come Sunday morning The light seeps in A bleary-eyed sun Is hung over this town The Sunday service singers Are last night's drunken choir They're somewhat more in tune today But somewhat less inspired Sweat-soaked city Night life in a working class town Sweat-soaked city To feel up we go downtown Sweat-soaked city Don't let the work day get us down Night life night life in a working class town
