Got a job on an assembly line
I used to love them words, quittin’ time
I’d hit the door runnin’ honey straight to you
But now there’s nothin’ left to go home to

It’s a sad city when the sun goes down
Another heart’s breakin’ as the world goes ‘round
When that moon comes up
Oh these tears roll down
It’s a sad city when the sun goes down

I’m alright by the light of day
That sunlight seems to keep your memory away
Everything changes when the shadows fall
I’m dyin’ slowly here by that clock on the wall

‘cause it’s a sad city when the sun goes down
Another heart’s breakin’ as the world goes ‘round
When that moon comes up
Oh these tears roll down
It’s a sad city when the sun goes down

Solo

It’s a sad city when the sun goes down
Another heart’s breakin’ as the world goes ‘round
When that moon comes up
Oh the tears roll down
It’s a sad city when the sun goes down
It’s a sad city when the sun goes down

Sad city when the sun goes down
Sad city, it’s a sad sad city
Sad city when the sun goes down
A sad city--it’s a sad sad city

Sad city when the sun goes down
Sad city
