Toughest Street In Town lyrics

Artist: Thin Lizzy Album: Black Rose
Lyrics
Outside the window the neon flashes In the morning light Down on the sidewalk there's a woman with a problem But she don't know how to fight
She's destitute and broken down She softly whispers is there no one around And no one hears the sound Her knees give way and hit the ground
This is the toughest street in town This is the toughest street in town This is the toughest street in town This is the toughest
Like a rat in a pack it attacks From the back Through a crack in a track And you're taking smack
And jack has had a hard day No one told him it would be like this He's had to score the hard way And theres that trick he'll always miss
This is the toughest street in town This is the toughest It's tough stuff This is the toughest street around This is the toughest Don't you do down
No how
It's just another black spot Where far too many people have died It's just another grave yard And there's not too many people left alive
This is the toughest Are you tough enough This is the toughest Are you rough enough This is the toughest Can you bluff enough
Just a minor misery did me no harm But it's there as a constant reminder and its there to warn The neon is still flashing in the morning light Down on the sidewalk that woman was blown away Out of sight
All across the city no one gives a damn All across the city no one seems to understand
This is the toughest This is the toughest street in town This is the toughest street around This is the toughest
Are you rough enough This is the toughest If I were you I wouldn't come around here This is the toughest This is the toughest Are you tough enough
