From Telegraph to the Haight and on down to Market Street, it's the same story everywhere.
Lyrics
Bad Day In The City
Bad day for livin' in the city
Hard time living by the bay
People stare right through me
They don't seem to care--
Nobody even knows my name.
Can't get somethin' here for nothin'
Don't want nothin anyway;
Cause what I need
Can't find it roamin' your streets
What I need is far away--
On the great skyway....
Gonna sail into the clouds
Gonna fly across this world
Gonna find me a place to settle down
Maybe fall in love again
If I can find a pretty gal
Who Can take me like I am.
I'm leaving early in the morning
Before the sunlights on the bay
Before that Golden Gate
Gleams out in the dawn
Before I change my mind and stay.
These dirty sidewalks ain't for living
Too many people out there beg
Your street's so mean
People drive like they're crazed
I believe half this town's insane--
But not me.
She say's I'm nothing but a loser
She says I'm always looking down--
She could be right
I might die in this place
If I don't ry to leave this town
And Tomorrow is the day
I'll be on my merry way
Just sailing through the sky
Son I know
there's a chance that I might find
My paradise divine
If Lady Luck is on my side
