Sweat Soaked City Lyrics

Sweat-soaked city

Night life in a working class town

Sweat-soaked city

To feel up we go downtown

Sweat-soaked city

Don't let the work day get us down

Night life night life in a working class town

They're playing good time music

In a town that's fallen on bad times

Deflated dollars deflated pride

And dwindling dreams

This is the only place in town with a band

And this band pile drives a backbeat

To drive away the ringing in their ears

From the sound of machines

Sweat-soaked city

Night life in a working class town

Sweat-soaked city

To feel up we go downtown

Sweat-soaked city

Don't let the work day get us down

Night life night life in a working class town

In the corner young alcohooligans

Are acting like fools again

For some couples love

Turns this into a place for romance

There's an old couple trying to find a fox-trot feel

In some small town hard rock rhythm

Work day's load is put down

The feeling's light it's time to dance

Sweat-soaked city

Night life in a working class town

Sweat-soaked city

To feel up we go downtown

Sweat-soaked city

Don't let the work day get us down

Night life night life in a working class town

Come Sunday morning

The light seeps in

A bleary-eyed sun

Is hung over this town

The Sunday service singers

Are last night's drunken choir

They're somewhat more in tune today

But somewhat less inspired

Sweat-soaked city

Night life in a working class town

Sweat-soaked city

To feel up we go downtown

Sweat-soaked city

Don't let the work day get us down

Night life night life in a working class town
