Fat City N.O. - Michael Schenker

I’ve gone through a lot for my freedom

Lost a life along the way

Left home everything I own

As I headed to join the charade

Got caught up with the wild and the madness

I may have gone too far I must confess

I must confess

Got my money hid away in the gas tank

Gotta keep it steady no joke no mistake

Yeah I’ll be telling you to hold on

Strapped in my four forty Hemmy burning

Long live Fat City

Got nothin to lose

White / blue

Down the avenue

You’re worth everything I know

Long live Fat City

Out blowing a fuse

Set This Town Alight

I found my way out the backstreet

Glad to be alive

A hundred more miles I’ll be long gone

No more fighting or scrapes to survive

Up ahead says rest for riders

Headlights maybe red lights beware

Look into my rear view mirror

They’re closer than they do appear

Another minute I’ll be Far away

Another second I’ll be shifting gears

I’ve paid a lot for my freedom

I never wondered why

My memory’s clear and reminds me daily

It was so close but I passed them by

There was a space by the policeman

Gun shots all around over my head

They’ll never arrest me man… yeah right

So I look into my rear view mirror

They’re closer than they will appear

Another minute I’ll be far away

Another second I’ll be shifting gears

Long Live Fat City New Orleans
