Verse 1

In the heart of the city,

Where the alligators roam,

I'm a little lost when,

Ain't got no place to go.

Now I ain't got one minute,

Just gotta sit on my back,

I left home in a hurry,

'Till I'm never going back.

Chorus 1

I'm looking for a home, in the heart of the city.

Interlude

Verse 2

Now I'm stepping on the street,

And I'm stepping up the hill,

And I'm looking for a lover,

Looking, looking everywhere.

Maybe I'm in with a chance?

I hear clickety clack.

It's a girl my lord, I see her;

Stop,

Check,

Turning double fast.

Chorus 2

I'm looking for a lover, in the heart of the city.

Interlude

Chorus 3

I'm looking, I'm looking, I'm looking, I'm looking,

I'm looking, looking, looking, looking,

Looking everywhere, in the heart of the city.

Interlude

Verse 3

Well, in the heart of the city,

Well, it's part of the stars.

I hear that cassette music,

On a thousand guitars.

Hey, the boys are on the prowl,

They're checking out meat.

They know a bird in the hand,

Is worth two on the street.

Chorus 4

They're checking the meat, in the heart of the city.

Interlude

Well, I said;

Coda

The heart, heart, of the city,

Heart, heart, oh yeah.

Heart, heart, of the city,

Heart, heart, oh yeah.
