From the Amazon! - http://www.coloradream.comDirty City ~ by Steve Winwood 2008 - Off his new "Nine Lives" album release.The amazing talent of Steve, along with a great guitar solo by Eric Clapton, brings this tune to life. The percussion work by Karl Vanden Bossche is somewhat like that of the late former Traffic member, Rebop Kwaku Baah.~~~Dirty City by Steve Winwood with Eric ClaptonThe gangster came to see by boyWhen I was working nights to pay one more billHe promised the kid a sweeter lifeSaid, "Gotta understand it's dog eat dog out there"Well I looked in his room when I got homeAnd underneath the covers found a loaded gunHe looked at me with empty eyesHe said, "It's time for me to be moving on"Dirty city, this is a dirty townWhere's the pity, I can't move on up to higher groundI spoke to my woman the other dayShe said, "I need more cash we can't pay our way"She said, "Everything gets really hardAnd I need something sweet, don't you understand?"The roar of the train runs by my roomAnd on these summer nights I can't sleep anymoreI walk in the streets to greet the dawnOr stay at home all night and stare at the floorDirty city, this is a dirty townWhere's the pity, I can't move on up to higher groundDirty city, this is a dirty townWhere's the pity, I can't move on up to higher groundHelp me nowMove on to a higher groundHelp somehowMake a move to a higher groundWon't you help somehowMake a move to a higher groundWon't you help somehowI need a little help...Dirty city, this is a dirty town~~~Steve Winwood Dirty City2008 Wincraft Music, Inc.
