Lyrics

Lord, On a highwire singing to me
Let me outta this town
Cries from the beggers in the in betweens
Let me outta this town
The sun burns hotter than it did before
Let me outta this town
Boys on the block shouting civil war
Let me outta this town
Me, I ain't nothing but a native son
Lost in a change that may never come
Stay with me Jody just one more night
Hold on tight
Hold on tight
Down at the city hall the same ol' sound
Let me outta this town
Careful not the favors and they're passing 'em around
Let me outta this town
Like the dime store dealers they're all one in the same
Let me outta this town
They're standing on the corner calling your name
Let me outta this town
Me, I ain't nothing but a sinners son
Lost in a change that may never come
Stay with me Jody just one more night
Hold on tight
Hold on tight
(Bridge)
Dead end street, lone and cold
Fighting over a fever that'll steal your soul
Never had nothing in this high-rise world
Don't take my heart, don't take my girl
Lord, on a highwire singing to me
Let me outta this town
Let me outta this town
Let me outta this town
Let me outta this town
