The rCangers had a Em7homecomiFng Gin CHarlem late Em7last Fnight
AnGd the CMagic Rat drove his sEm7leek macFhinGe ovCer the Jersey stEm7ate lineF G
BaCrefoot girl sitting on the hEm7ood of a DFodge
Drinking wGarm beer iCn the soft sumEm7mer rain
The Rat puDmlls into town roAmlls up his pantsDm
Together they taAmke a stDmab at romanceAm and disappeaDmr down FlaGmingo Lane C Em7 F G C Em7 F G
TheC MaximumEm7 LawmanF run down FlaminGgo chCasing the Rat Em7and thFe barefGoot girl
CAnd the kids round here look jEm7ust liFke sGhadows always qCuiet, holdingEm7 handsG
FGrom the cChurches to theEm7 jailFs tonight alGl is siClence Em7in the wForld
DmAs we takAme our staDmnd AmdowDmn in JFunglelaCndF C F
CThe midnighGt gang'Fs assembled anGd Cpicked a rendezvous fGor Fthe nightG
They'll Cmeet `neath that giGant FExxon signG tChat brings this fair ciGty lFight
GMan therCe's an opera out on the GTurnpiFke
GThere's a Cballet being fought out inG the aFlley
GUntil Cthe local coGps, FCherry TopGs, Crips this holGy nFight
The Dmstreet's aliveC as secret Fdebts are pGaid
ContactsDm made, they Cvanished unFseen G
Kids Dmflash guitars Cjust like sFwitch-bladeGs Dmhustling for the Crecord machinFe G
The Bbhungry and the hunted CexploDmde into rock'n'roll bands
That fBbace off against each other out in the streeCt Dmdown in FJunglelandC F C F
BbIn the parking lot the visionaries dFress in the latest rage
CInside the backsGmtreet girls are daBbncing to the records that the FD.J. playCs
BbLonely-hearted lovers struggle in dark corners
FDesperate as the night moves onC, jGmust a look and a Bbwhisper, and they're Cgone
BeneEbath the cBbity two hBbearts beatBb
Soul Cmengines running through a Bbnight so tendCmer Bbin a Abmaj7bedroom lBbocked
In wAbmaj7hispers of sBboft refEbusal and tBbhen surAbrendeBb7r in the tEbunnels uptown
The Rat's own dream guns him down as shots Cmecho down them hallways in the nighCmt
No one Abmaj7watches when the ambuBblance pulls awaAbmaj7y Bb
Or as the Cmgirl shuts out the Cbedroom lightCm
GOutside the Dmstreet's on fCire in a Freal death waltz
BeGtween flDmesh and what's fCantasFy and thGe pDmoets down Chere
Don't write Fnothing at all, they jGust Dmstand back and Clet it allF be G
GAnd in the qBbuick of the night they reach for their moment
And try to make an honest stand Dmbut they wind up woundedBb, not even dead
TonDm7ight in JFunglelanCd
