Lyrics Skid-Row - Risk

Skid-Row

Beg steal borrow desire
A child’s heart seemed to expire
No denying a city’s a jungle
Rats in the backyard
Big city, hopeless and rough
A child’s life stone-cold and tough
Little sneaker, alley sleeper
Prince of the backyard
No career, no tomorrow
A child’s day of hunger and sorrow
All dreams lost and decayed
In the dirt of the backyard
Kid from skid row
Tough heart, Hobo
Backstreet boy
Got no joy
But knows how to Cheat on you
Kid from skid row
Backyard, black heart
Kid from skid row
Tough heart, Hobo
