City Lights
[Verse 1]
Daddy's girl sings Elvis in a karaoke bar
Mama's boy is homeless sleepin' in his car
Forest came up from Texas, got a motel for the week
Shooter is down on Second, tryin' to catch a peak

[Chorus]
City light's wakin' us tonight
She don't know how hard she prays

[Verse 2]
Old man tells a story 'bout a young man with a dream
"Way back in 1940, I was livin' on these streets"
He said, "Money comes so easy livin' in the hills
And forty-hour people can't even pay their bills"

[Chorus]
And the city light's wakin' us tonight
She don't know how hard she prays
And the city light's wakin' us tonight
She won't ever say my name
[Bridge]
I've lived with my choices
You live with yours
Two miles to choose
Separating these two worlds

[Chorus]
City light's wakin' us tonight
And she don't know how hard she prays
City light's wakin' us tonight
Now, she won't ever say my name

[Chorus]
City light's wakin' us tonight
She don't know how hard she prays
She don't know how hard she prays

[Outro]
Daddy's girl sings Elvis
