lyrics

There’s a post-up truck on the side of the road
Blue lights flash in Sin-City fashion
The prowler is dressed in black and gold
In this dead-end town the scene gets old

Up the block there’s barking, from out of the dark
A baby’s crying, an engine dies
The post-up bust is a sight to behold
It’s a dead-end town, so I’ve told and been told, alright

Sirens howl and…

It’s a once-was, has-been river city
The rising star of 1950,
And unlike time to an old guitar
This rising star’s in the back of the bar

Illuminated, empty streets
and the far-off sound of programmed beats
My heart beat plays to the speed of my shoes,
I’m running, I’m running, I’m running

River City, I play for you
River City, I pray you make it through
River City, hey you’ve had it rough, but there’s no place quite as tough
As river city, I play for you

It’s a concrete jungle, brick mill town
Where the heathens will hold you upside down
Your change starts falling onto the tracks
But you know this train ain’t coming back

So your breath picks up when the lights go out
Breaking glass, and people shouting
Beads of sweat drip down your neck
And you’re running, you’re running, you’re running
