The City Of Soul Lyrics
The summer is hot, the nights are still cold<br />
Here in Philadelphia, in the city of soul<br />
And we can let our hair down when it gets hot above<br />
'Cause nothin' ever happens in the city of love<br />
<br />
But someone should tell 'em there's a fire in the sky-y (hey-hey)<br />
And someone should tell 'em <br />
This is still nineteen eighty-five, (nineteen eighty-fi-ive)<br />
Here in the city of love (it's so hot)<br />
<br />
Sixty-second street and it looks like Beiruit<br />
Like, like something you would see on the picture tube<br />
You-ou-ou can watch it happen right in the cool of your front room<br />
'Cause nothin' ever happens in the city of doom<br />
<br />
Listen, let me tell ya, that the fire's real in the sky (hey-hey)<br />
And someone should understand <br />
This is still nineteen eighty-five, (nineteen eighty-fi-ive), ooh-ooh<br />
Here in the city of love (the city of love, ooh-ooh)<br />
<br />
Sometimes you can't open your door<br />
Sometimes you just can't make a mo-ove<br />
The city is black but the fire is red<br />
I've sti-ill got the sound of marching feet in my head<br />
Some love it, most don't give a da-amn<br />
But I've got the fire in my heart, sweatin' it out<br />

Children burn even when the nights are cold<br />
Here in Philadelphia, the city of soul<br />
We all let our hair down when it gets hot above<br />
'Cause, nothin' ever happens in the city of love<br />
But mister let me tell ya, that a lot of people die<br />
You can't understand<br />
This is still nineteen eighty-five, (nineteen eighty-fi-ive)<br />
<br />
Sometimes you can't ignore<br />
Sometimes you just can't make a mo-ove<br />
The city is black but the fire is re-ed<br />
I've sti-ill got the sound of marching feet in my head<br />
But some love it, most don't give a da-amn<br />
I've got the fire in my heart, swe
