John Mellencamp Hot Night In A Cold Town
(Geoffrey Cushing-Murray/Richard Littlefield) Sonny's out strolling, ambling slowly Washed in amber street lights A Mexican wind blows in Takin' ahold of Angelina's hair and her halo Motors runnin' muffling the sound Of street talk, a big deal's goin' down CHORUS It's another hot night In a cold town Got yourself a hot night In a cold town Johnny's got spare change in his pocket A ring and a watch to hock for a sweet ride A one way ticket hidden in his shoe These last few hours He says he'll spend with you He's leavin' home without a trace No forwarding address, he'll never have to face another... CHORUS Well, the losers and the groovers And the corner boys are hangin' 'round Runnin' in and out of doorways Up and down the stairs Stray dogs headed for the pound CHORUS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
