In the heart of the city lives a woman and she’s pretty
But Lord you know that it’s hard to get by but she tries
The only way she knows so she goes outside
To stand under the lamp light where it’s safe and she’s alright
And she knows that it’s not right so she tells herself every night
It won’t be long it won’t be long she’ll find a man and move away
Everything’s gonna be OK it’s OK it’s alright it’s OK everything’s gonna be alright
In a part of the city that’s not so pretty lives a boy and he’s gritty
And he’ll find his kitty and he’s been watching her corner
Under the light of the lamp post a girl stands there almost
Like a vision of an Angel and she’s looking his way
Maybe this will be the time maybe this will be the way
And he’s oh so lonely and he’s so cold inside
It’s OK it’s alright it’s OK it’s gonna be alright it’s OK
Finally it’s their time they both were so cold inside!
