From the album ILL PLAY FOR YOU 1975 Oh, this ugly city. I cant even seem to see the stars up above Oh, this lonely city. Where can I go but to the arms of the one I love She knows me. Weve got so many things, I should be so thankful Shes beautiful, and day by day it just grows and grows And like the ocean, it just rolls. While the ugly city grows But were safe my love and me, cause our love is like the sea, oh I once saw a rainbow in Washington. But only one, then day was done It lived for just a little while, then the city smiled and it died Someday Ill leave this ugly city. Up and pack my bags and catch me an eastern bound train Yes, Im gonna leave this lonely city. Im leaving just as soon as I find my fortune and fame Oh this ugly city. Working a poor man to fill an early grave Wish it would rain
city, ugly, grows, lonely, washington
