Hear the cry as the city weeps
People moving through the street
And don't mind me, going down to the river
Working hard to make it pay
Working hard to make their way
But don't mind me, going down to the river
I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?
Passed the statue where the waters flow
Million faces that I'll never know
And don't mind me, going down to the river
Boats are leaving for another land
Watch it slipping through my hands
But don't mind me, going down to the river
I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?
Hear the cry as the city weeps
People looking but no-one sees
And don't mind me, going down to the river
Like the actor in the film I saw
Had enough but wanted more
And don't mind me, going down to the river
I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?
