Black Bottom

In the shadow of the city where the sun don´t shine
Where it´s a constant struggle just to stay alive
You hear a shot ring out
Somebody else has died
Ain´t no good in Black Bottom
It´s an evil place
Where a man can vanish
Without a single trace
Talk about the blues
People down there got ´em
´Cause you ain´t gotta chance
If you´re down in Black Bottom
If you live in Black Bottom
You don´t walk at night
´Cause some cat might cut you
Just to spark a fight
Talk about the blues
People down there got ´em
´Cause you ain´t gotta chance
If you´re down in Black Bottom
