Lyrics Sleeping in Blood City (Remastered 2020) - The Gun Club

I'll take you sleeping up the street
But I'll take you very softly
I'll take you under the parking light
And hold you very softly

Just like a soul, your face will shine
Even though your mind has blown
Was the type of love, a much better kind
When you were on your own?

You are taken, going down
Way down to Blood City
You are taken, going down
Through the bloody red eyes of Blood City

Look above you, for the sky is black
And the asphalt is blue
Throw yourself right down on your back
Look at me for what to do

I don't take what is given to me
Just take it from the land
Was the type of love a much better kind
When you were with another man?

You are taken, going down
Right down to Blood City
You are taken, going down
Through the bloody red eyes of Blood City

I'll take you sleeping up the street
I'll take you very softly
Right under the parking lights
And I'll hold you so softly

Just like a soul, your face will shine
Even though your mind's been blown
Was the type of love, a much better kind
When you were on your own

You are taken, going down
Way down to Blood City
You are taken, going down
Through the bloody red eyes of Blood City

Right to Blood City
Right to Blood City
Oh, right to Blood City
Oh, right to Blood City
