WITH THE SOHO RIVER DRINKING ME DOWN 
IN THE CITY OF THE DEAD 
FALL IN LOVE AN' FALL IN BED 
IT WASN'T ANYTHING YOU SAID 
EXCEPT I KNOW WE BOTH LIE DEAD 
DON?T YOU KNOW WHERE TO COP 
THAT'S WHAT NEW YORK JOHNNY SAID * * * * 
YOU SHOULD GET TO KNOW YOUR TOWN  
JUST LIKE I KNOW MINE 
WHILE ALL THE WINDOWS STARE AHEAD 
AN? THE STREETS ARE FILLED WITH DREAD  
EVERY NATION IN THE WORLD 
SLINKS THROUGH THE ALLEY AFTER GIRLS 
WHAT WE WEAR IS DANGEROUS GEAR  
IT'LL GET YOU PICKED ON ANYWHERE  
THOUGH WE GET BEAT UP WE DON?T CARE  
AT LEAST IT LIVENS UP THE AIR 
BUT SOMEDAYS WE HIDE INSIDE 
ALL COURAGE GONE AND PARALYSED  
SNIFF THAT WIND OF UGLY TENSION  
  F                  Em   G 
TODAY THE JERKS HAVE GOT AGGRESSION 
G 
IT IS THE CITY OF THE DEAD 
*JOHNNY THUNDERS
