Dog City

Here on the corner of Cold & Alone
I clean the airport from midnight till dawn
And this city hangs on me like a cheap suit on the back of a working man

Got a room over top of the Rainbow Grill
Where a big blonde waitress keeps my coffee filed
And once in a while she'll come up to my place
Just to hold me light make sure that I don't fade away

Where do the old men go
When their song stops playing on the radio
How does a young man know
When his dream is over and he's lost his soul
To Dog City

I sleep to the rhythm of shotgun rain
Till the dream takes over and I'm drifting again
South of the border where the Cuban girls are sleeping too

Human to human, animal instinct gone forever
I'm not a rich man but I'm golden now
Out here in my world, you're here in my world
Don't hold on, I just want to fade away, tell me

Where do the old men go
When their song stops playing on the radio
How does a young man know
When his dream is over and he's lost his soul
To Dog City
