What Are The Lyrics For How Can You Live Like That? By Eddie Harris?

Big cities are not the place for me
People are cramped together living in misery
If you walk three blocks at night, you'll be scared as you can be
There's a guard watching with a gun as you buy your groceries

How can you live like that?
How can you live like that?

The stores all close long before it gets dark
Ladies are afraid to walk alone through the park
You're afraid to go to sleep when your neighbor's dog let out a bark
Muggers are standing on street corners, happy as a lark

How can you live like that?
How can you live like that?

You try to park in front, on a lighted street
Just to buy some food, to carry out to eat
If you ride the public transportation you take a front seat
When you hear the ambulance and the police siren
You know your night's complete

How can you live like that?
How can you live like that?

People have bars on their windows, and three locks on the door
Have a pistol under their pillow, and a shotgun on the floor
One thing about crime in the big cities, they rob the rich and kill the poor
City officials keep saying, that they can't do much more

How can you live like that?
How can you live like that?

How can you find a solution when you can't see for the pollution?
How can you live like that?
How can you live in one room and smell the dust from your neighbor's broom?
How can you live like that?
How can you stand the pace, in such a crowded place?
How can you live like that?
How can you fight inflation, plus the school situation?
How can you live like that?
How can you keep your feet, with all those holes in the street?
How can you live like that?
When you gonna realize, that every big city is a high rise?
How can you live like that?
