Young Blood - Rickie Lee Jones

Take a walk around midnight in the city

Young Blood is hiding there somewhere

If you’re looking for something to do

There’s always something happening there

Like I & Bragger, we borrowed a coupe to day

Here come Pepe and she’s got a friend with a chevrolet

But she ain’t running

She’s walking a little slow

And she ain’t crying-- she’s just singing a little low

They say this city will make you dirty

But you look alright

You feel real pretty when he’s holding you tight

City will make you mean

But that’s just make-up on your face

Love will wash you clean in the night’s disgrace

Find a block where your people can find you

Keep a third eye watching behind you

You never know when you’re making a memory

They will wish they were here together again, someday

Kids looking for something to get into--

Take a look

Two for the movie show

Three for the back row

Hold on tight!

Remember, you might have looked like cool twelve

But your fuse just felt like dynamite

Take a walk around midnight in the city

Young Blood will find you there, somewhere

And if you’re looking for something to do

There’s always something happening there
