Lyrics
hey, what is this now, their trying to hand me
free as a bird, don't try to save me
in the city, there's always something going on
tv set , or ring, to pawn
in the city, the farm is out there on my lawn
ate the rooster, went to sleep at dawn
but, not me, ever since I saw.......
in the city, there's always somehting there to do
the sky keeps turning, black, & blue
in the city, people chatter, as traffic plays thru
no chickens clucking, or cows that moo
but not me, ever since I saw...........
the city, took me home, I can't roam
far from the city, it's home, & the city, won't let me roam
there aint no job, take them all
there's no good news, that ever calls
let it go, let it go
their hearts in the city, hearts in the city
