Friday random ten: The city never sleeps, part 3

Just a city boy with some city songs…

1. Dallas, Texas – Austin Lounge Lizards
2. Detroit Rock City – KISS
3. Do You Know The Way To San Jose? – Dionne Warwick
4. The Duke of Dubuque – Manhattan Transfer
5. Dusty In Memphis – Dusty Springfield
6. East St. Louis Toodle-Oo – Duke Ellington
7. Ellis County – Buddy and Julie Miller
8. Fairytale of New York – The Pogues featuring Kirsty MacColl
9. Fasting in San Francisco – Y La Bamba
10. Flowers of Edinburgh – Jim Malcolm

That’s three Detroit songs, but as you will see, Memphis is the most popular destination for song titles in my collection. Not exactly sure why that is, but there you have it. Oh, and for the second week in a row there’s a song featuring the name of a county instead of a city. I figure that’s close enough.
