Sonny's out strollin', amblin' slowly
Washed in amber street lights
Mexican wind blows in
Taking hold of Angelina's hair
And her halo [bad word] , mufflin' the sound
Of the streets
big deal's goin' down in another

Hot night in a cold town
Got yourself a hot night
In a cold town

Johnny's got spare change
In his pocket
ring and a watch to hock
For a sweet ride
one way ticket
Hidden in his shoe
These last few hours
He says he'll spend them with you
He's leaving home without a trace
No forwarding address
He'll never know
How to face another

Well the losers and the groovers
And the corner boys
Are hangin' [bad word] in and out of doorways
Up and down the stairways
Stray dogs headed for the pound

Hot night in a cold town
Got yourself a
Hot night in a cold town
It's just another hot night
In a cold town
