In the city

The wind blows cold tonight
it blows real cold at night in the city
sitting in the back of a limousine
on my way to do a show in New Orleans
A glass of wine helps me feel real fine
relaxes my mind hope I get there on time
and I think of a man that I left behind
in the city
in the city
I'll be singing the blues tonight
getting soothed by the blues tonight in New Orleans
Up on stage with my microphone
in a room with all these people I'm still alone
and I think of a man that I left behind
in the city
in the city
ooooh
all is quiet and it's warm tonight
yet I feel so alone tonight in a hotel room
and I think of a man that I left behind
I can't be his wife cuz of my traveling life
in the city
in the city
ooooh
there's a knock on my door tonight
and I think of a man who understands
he's here tonight gonna make me feel all right
in the city
in the city
ooooh
