[Verse 1]
I didn't know what time it was until the sun went down
Detroit Michigan on the bus downtown
Last night I was fighting alone in the street
But tonight I have a girl next to me
In this cold world, she brings me heat

[Chorus]
I got a good feeling about a bad city tonight
I got a good feeling everything's gonna be alright
Some run, some fight
I got a good feeling about a bad city tonight

[Verse 2]
Detained in illegal custody, spent the night in jail
With a drunken priest and a hooker, $500 bail
Nobody knew, grew up with the crew standing in the street like that
I hit the ground without a sound, it goes just like that

[Chorus]
I got a good feeling about a bad city tonight
I got a good feeling everything's gonna be alright
Some run, some fight
I got a good feeling about a bad city tonight

[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Bus dropped me off and I had the cough
I couldn't breathe 'cause I got ripped off
I couldn't realize by being satisfied
'Cause it runs so thin and that's why I'm pissed off
She had no money, I had time
She had the champagne, I had the cisco wine
She said do you want to come?
You better hurry because we'll have hell to pay

[Chorus]
I got a good feeling about a bad city tonight
I got a good feeling everything's gonna be alright
Some run, some fight
I got a good feeling about a bad city tonight
