Little City

I got my call light on

Gimme one more fare tonight

Just get me over the bridge

I can see those shiny bay lights

You know I'm never alone

But I'm feeling lonely tonight

Damn, I've got my last cigarette

But I ain't got no light

God, let these wheels roll

To where the girls are pretty

When the nights explode

And life's still living

Down this open road

The arms of pity

Wait to greet me tonight

In little city

In my rear view mirror

I see someone else's hairline

I hear that fire in your eyes

Is on the rock and doing hard time

And the grapes of wrath

They're on the vine, there's wine in this dirt

Here love ain't love

It's just another four letter word

God, let these wheels roll

Where the girls are pretty

Where the nights explode

And life's still living

Down this open road

The arms of pity

Wait to greet me tonight

In little city

Oh

God, let these wheels roll

Where the girls are pretty

Where the nights explode

And life's still living

Down this open road

The arms of pity

Wait to greet me tonight

In little city

Now that cold, gray fog's

Just a rolling down the highway

He's come to carry me home

It puts a little smile on my face
