Heading for the city lyrics

All my friends packing up,

Loading up their Volvo's

And their pickup trucks

Going down the road,

To try their luck

So spin that dream,

Go heading for the city

Roll that dice,

Say a prayer,

Light a candle for me

When you get there,

Win or lose,

We're heading for the city

Well I got a problem hear what I say

They're telling me I got to move away

I was happy here,

They tell me I can't stay

Now what’s screaming rain is heading this way

For those who sleep and choose to stay

The game they didn't know

They had to play

So win or lose

We're heading for the city

So roll that dice

Say a prayer

Light a candle for me

When you get there,

Win or lose,

We're heading for the city
