City Ways |
| City ways are gonna get you, baby |
| City ways is gonna small you in |
| City ways are gonna keep you, baby |
| Down in the hollow you’re in |
| Down in the hollow you’re in |
| Everybody, it seems, is hustling |
| Just to get an extra dollar or two |
| When you think that is your turn to have it |
| Someone’s gonna step on you |
| You know they’re gonna step on you |
| And it’s hard |
| A country life is all I’ve ever known, now |
| Yeah, it’s hard |
| City life, girl, is bringing me down |
| It’s dragging me down |
| Yeah, yeah |
| When you get to the end of your road, now |
| You’re about to lose your lies talked warm |
| Just hang on that last moment |
| When you get it by the door |
| Lock up the door |
| Take me back to the real thing, baby |
| You know this place ain’t right to me |
| Keep me out this hard, tight city |
| Take me back where I can re-breathe |
| You know I just wanna be free |
| Yeah, yeah |
