Written by bob welch. Well hello little girl, welcome to this big town I Did you bring lots of money, do you have nerves of steel And are you ready to gamble, put your heart on the wheel Oh oh, the devil wind Big town claims another win Is this how it all begins How the innocents have changed Oh oh, the devil wind Breaks another young heart again So this is how it always ends How the innocents have changed I was born in this city, i destroyed my old man But he came to this city from an innocent land Now i should know better, i But you do what you have to, let me be the first Repeat chorus After the devil wind stops blowin? Wake up and find your heart
