"Ride Into The Sun" (album _Lou Reed_ (1st.solo) version)
Looking for another chance for someone else to be
Looking for another place to ride into the sun
Ride into the sun, ride into the sun
Ride into the sun ride into the sun
Where -
- everything seems so pretty
But if you're tired and you're sick of the city
Remember that it's just a flower, made out of clay
Oh, the city
Where everything seems so dirty
But if you're tired and you're filled with self-pity
Remember that you're just one more person who's there
It's hard to live in the city
It's hard to live in the city, oh - oh - oh
It's hard to live in the city, oh - wow - wow
It's hard to live in the city

"Ride Into The Sun" (box set _Peel Slowly And See_ version)
Lookin' for another place, someone else to be
Lookin' for another chance, to ride into the sun
Ride into the sun, ride into the sun
Ride into the sun, ride into -
The sun where
everything seems so pretty, but lonely and tired of the city
Remember it's a flower made out of clay
To the city
where everything seems so ugly, when you're sitting alone in self pity
Remember you're just one person who's living there
It's hard to live in the city
It's hard to live in the city
It's hard to live in the city
It's hard to live in the city
