Back to the City Lyrics by Keel

The Right to Rock

1985

It's Friday night and I'm restless
Longing for the neon flame
I'm hungry for the streets tonight
Getting ready to play my game
I get in my Chevy and drive
And turn the radio loud
I'm looking for action tonight
I gotta hear the roar of the crowd
I'm going home
Back to the city
Back where I belong
Back to the city
Yeah, I'm coming home
Cold steel and concrete
Is what I need to feel
The smell of smoke and lust
And the street beneath my heels
I gotta find me a woman
To give me what I need
I can't control this hunger
And now it's time to feed
I'm going home
Back to the city
Back where I belong
Back to the city
Yeah, I'm coming home
Back to the city
Back where I belong
Back to the city
I'm going back now
I'm going home
Back to the city
Back where I belong
Back to the city
I'm going back to the city
