There's a strip bar at the corner
It's a dirty part of town
Where the streets are getting hotter
As the sun is going down

It's been a long day, long day
There's a moonlight in the gutter
And a guitar on my mind for the city blues

I'm gonna slow down, slow down
And follow the night for a while
I'm gonna slow down, slow down
And follow the night for a while
Just a little while

I've got no plan whatsoever
I'm gonna play it all by year
Maybe walk a little further
Get some cigarettes and beer

Another long night, ow
The longest, the longest night
There's a moonlight in the gutter
And a guitar on my mind, for the city
The city blues
I'm gonna slow down, slow down
And follow the night for a while
I'm gonna slow down, slow down
And follow the night for a while
