Hot Night In A Cold Town

(album: Abominog - 1982)

Sonny's out strolling, ambling slowly
Washed in amber street lights
Mexican wind blows in
Taking hold of Angelina's hair
And her halo
Motors running, muffling the sound
Of the streets
A big deal's going down in another

Hot night in a cold town
Got yourself a hot night
In a cold town

Johnny's got spare change
In his pocket
A ring and a watch to hock
For a sweet ride
A one way ticket
Hidden in his shoe
These last few hours
He says he'll spend them with you
He's leaving home without a trace
No forwarding address
He'll never know
How to face another

Well the losers and the groovers
And the corner boys
Are hanging around
Running in and out of doorways
Up and down the stairways
Stray dogs headed for the pound

Hot night in a cold town
Got yourself a
Hot night in a cold town
It's just another hot night
In a cold town
