Born In the 50's (Remastered) - The Police

I'll leave my blood in the city Throw me in the jungle I can finally say I'm ready Throw me in the jungle I'll leave my blood in the city Throw me in the jungle Just let my lungs fill with smoke Leave only my skin a match and a stone We'll leave no corner left undone The shadows run deep in the constant sun As streets unfold we find our muse She wears many faces she speaks our truth I'll leave my blood in the city Throw me in the jungle Just let my lungs fill with smoke Leave only my skin a match and a stone I'll leave my blood in the city Throw me in the jungle Just let my lungs fill with smoke Leave only my skin a match and a stone Even if you're not the same I won't turn my back on you If I arrive to find myself letting the worst Of you taking the best of me You're taking the best of me Throw me in If I arrive to find myself letting the worst Of you taking the best of me Should i trade sand for salt? The elements seem to dissolve us all In the end this is positive change No matter where I stand no matter where I lay I'll leave my blood in the city Throw me in the jungle I can finally say I'm ready Throw me in the jungle I'll leave my blood in the city Throw me in the jungle Just let my lungs fill with smoke Leave only my skin a match and a stone I'll leave my blood in the city Throw me in the jungle Just let my lungs fill with smoke Leave only my skin a match and a stone This will be the light you live with With a heart of fire Set my body ablaze With a heart of fire Set my body ablaze With a heart of fire Set my body ablaze With a heart of fire Set my body ablaze With a heart of fire Set my body ablaze
