LIVIN ON THE EDGE OF THE NIGHT
You went off the river
Smoke stacks fade to blind
This town`s my own, ridin`free and alone
And I`m looking back
Maybe I know some people
Maybe I break some rules
But this is the street, I`ve got to compete
Baby, I ain`t no fool
*So I take a little bad with the good
It ain`t just black and white
(It still ain`t black and white)
You`ve got to deal with the real
Woo, living on the edge of the night
Every wild desire
Beckons from the dark
I`ve made my bed but I can`t risk my head
While I still swim with sharks
Everyone needs something
Sometimes they don`t know why
But so much good`s been misunderstood
In the blink of the eye
(Repeat *)
You say that you don`t like it
Or maybe it`s just my life
So you live yours and I`ll keep mine
Rolling like a wheel through the city
Living on the edge of the night
And when the black rain`s down
In this cold gray town
I`ll be waiting
Waiting at the edge of the night
Woo, living on the edge of the night
Woo, living on the edge of the night
