(Jagger)
|
No more sleaze ball, funky, low down, skunky juke joints
|
Where the drinks are knee deep on the floor
|
And the clientele is posed and angry
|
And the pretty girls are whores
|
Who gild the lily, and more's the pity
|
|
If you really want to live a life of passion
|
If you really want to dance your life away
|
There's a place I really got to show you
|
It's down in the alley, really hid away
|
(treat me) Soul City, Soul City
|
Peace for the wicked
|
Life for the living in Soul City
|
|
It's a way on down the street
|
I found it once before
|
Even though I have the keys
|
I still can't always find the door
|
It can be tricky
|
Might have to pick it
|
|
Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul City
|
Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul City
|
The girls are witty
|
The boys are pretty
|
|
There's a girl who's dancing with my conscience
|
While the DJ's playing with my heart
|
On the screen are my recriminations
|
While I'm singing I'm still praying hard
|
|
Soul City, Soul City
|
Peace for the wicked
|
Food for the spirit in Soul City
|
Soul City, Soul City
|
Come down there with me
|
Come down there with me
|
|

Peace For The Wicked
