Life in the Big City

(الألبوم: The Arcade - 2022)

Billy was a welterweight, never got the shot at the title
Never was a rich boy, always played the hustle, a survivor
He went the wrong way home, now he's a long way gone

I can still remember play the rock, you're the drop, I'm the driver
Pack it up, burn it in the back yard, throw it on the fire
He was a real good guy
He was a friend of mine
Shot down in the street one night
Standing up for a stranger

That's life in the big city
That's life and it ain't always pretty
Ah, Billy, where are you now?
I don't ever wanna leave this town

Everybody's looking for the scapegoat running in the aisle
Billy got hands, he's the ghost of a champ that retired
Got knocked down all fight, big laughs all night
Hey, everybody came to play
Anyway

That's life in the big city
That's life and it ain't always pretty
Ah, Billy, where are you now?
I don't ever wanna leave this town

Rain, rain, go away
Come again another day
Rain, rain, just go away
Today
Ah, Billy, where are you now?

Ah, Billy, where are you now?
Ah, Bill, it's like you almost knew
I wish I said goodbye to you
