Detroit City (3:58)

(Alice Cooper, Ryan Roxie, Chuck Garric)

Me and Iggy were giggin' with Ziggy
And kickin' with the MC5
Ted and Seger were burnin' with the fever
And let the silver bullets fly
The Kid was in his crib
Shady wore a bib
And the Posse wasn't even alive

Shock rock, choppin' block
Songs that make your heart stop
Shove it into overdrive
Play it loud and fast
Make that guitar blast
Play it like today will be your last

Well I was born there
Probably die there
With all my long hair
Detroit City

You feel your heart beat
You hit the concrete
Dance the mean streets
Detroit City

There's a riot raging downtown
Trying to burn the place down
Sky's growing red and gray
But the Rif kept a rockin'
And the Creem kept a talkin'
And the street's still smokin' today

Play it loud and fast
Make that guitar blast
Play it like today will be your last

Well I was born there
Probably die there
With all my long hair
Detroit City

You feel your heart beat
You hit the concrete
Dance the mean streets
Detroit City

6 mile, 7 mile, 8 mile, 9 mile, 10 mile, 11 mile
Detroit City
Louder, faster, louder, Detroit City

Well I was born there
Probably die there
With all my long hair
Detroit City

Feel your heart beat
Hit the concrete
Dance the mean streets
Detroit City

Well I was born there
Probably die there
With all my long hair
Detroit City

Feel your heart beat
Hit the concrete
Dance the mean streets
Detroit City
