Night in the City

Standin' at the airport

Lookin' down the strip

She was dryin' her eyes,

She was bitin' her lip

Seven-four-seven just left from Gate Eleven

And there's no turnin' 'round

'Cause it's just leavin' the ground

And gettin' higher, higher.

Standin' at the dock-side

Lookin' out to sea,

When I saw her

But she did not see me

There she stood with no hope

Because she'd missed the boat

And as her dreams sailed away,

She headed back for the day

Back to the city, city.

Night in the city, o-o-oh

Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight

Night in the city drivin' you insane.

In the city...

In the city, city...

Night in the city, o-o-oh

Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight

Night in the city drivin' you insane.

I was runnin' kinda lonely

At the city place

I waited for an hour,

I never saw her face

Crazy ladies that wait

And slide around like a snake

I just can't take anymore,

I'm going in through the door

Into the city, city.

I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you

I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you

I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you

I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you

I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you

I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you

Drivin' you insane.

Night in the city, o-o-oh

Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight

Night in the city drivin' you insane,

Drivin' you insane,

Drivin' you insane.
