Thunder - Low Life In High Places Lyrics
Mama, tell your children not to goDown to the city, where the desperate people goAnd mama, don't let them strayThey won't find, peace of mind, in such a lonely placeWannabes and losers, all trying to get a breakThey don't give a damn, they'll do whatever it takesIf they climb the ladder, they get to play for higher stakesThat's why there's low life in high placesMama, things have changed since you were youngWhen you scream, in the dead of nightNow no one ever comesAnd a poor man, he's cast as the villan and a thiefSee him down on the street, begging for enough to eatWaiting on the corner, I saw her waiting for the manWhen the limo pulled up I saw what was changing handsI should've tried to warn her, and make her understandThere is low life in high placesThere is low life, like you never even knewThere is low life, and it lives in me and youBut we don't all let it throughDon't let 'em go, you've got to have some pityDon't you let 'em goYou've got to keep 'em away, from the big bad city(SOLO)Waiting on the corner, I saw her waiting for the manWhen the limo pulled up I saw what was changing handsI should've tried to warn her, and make her understandMama, tell your children not to goDown to the city, where the desperate people goAnd mama, don't you let them strayThey won't find, peace of mind in such a lonely place
