Peace for the Wicked

<br>No more sleaze ball, funky, low down, skunky juke joints<br>Where the drinks are knee deep on the floor<br>And the clientele is posed and angry<br>And the pretty girls are whores<br>Who gild the lily, and more`s the pity <br>If you really want to live a life of passion<br>If you really want to dance your life away<br>There`s a place I really got to show you<br>It`s down in the alley, really hid away<br>(treat me) Soul City, Soul City<br>Peace for the wicked<br>Life for the living in Soul City <br><br>It`s a way on down the street<br>I found it once before<br>Even though I have the keys<br>I still can`t always find the door<br>It can be tricky<br>Might have to pick it <br><br>Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul City<br>Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul City<br>The girls are witty<br>The boys are pretty <br><br>There`s a girl who`s dancing with my conscience<br>While the DJ`s playing with my heart<br>On the screen are my recriminations<br>While I`m singing I`m still praying hard <br><br>Soul City, Soul City<br>Peace for the wicked<br>Food for the spirit in Soul City<br>Soul City, Soul City<br>Come down there with me<br>Come down there with me
