Don't get too close to me,

don't overreact,

you're not the enemy as a matter of fact,

you got your pretty face and you got any name you wore

gonna stick by you, gonna stumble over what to do.



I want it, good lovin' wanna be your plaything.

I want it, good lovin' bring out the beast in me.

I want it, good lovin' wanna make your heart sing,

in the shadows we are free, and I walk you through it.



It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong.

You're in trouble if you

disagree with me.

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong,

you find out why.



It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong.

You're in trouble if you

disagree with me.

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong,

you find out why.



VERSE 2:

So many tell you that you can't win

It's a battle if you're lonely

Or if you're starting over

Two-fisted and fast on your feet

And you know there's something more

And the city kicks it out of you and...



I want it, good lovin' wanna be your plaything.

I want it, good lovin' bring out the worst in me.

I want it, good lovin' wanna make your heart sing,

in the shadows we are free, and I walk you through it.



It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong.

You're in trouble if you

disagree with me.

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong,

you find out why.
