1
Well, I came back to the city
2
And it wasn't very pretty,
3
It was dying
4
There were some who had more than they could eat
5
And other with no shoes up on their feet,
6
They were crying
7
I saw a brother sell his brother
8
While the cops held another,
9
They were laughing
10
I saw two dogs in the street,
11
A black one and a white one,
12
They were fighting
13
If it isn't very pretty
14
Why do they stay in the city
15
And watch it dying?
16
Why don't I go back to the country
17
And sit beneath a plum tree with my sweet little girl,
18
And listen to her singin'?
19
It's because I'm caught in a trap
20
Lord, and you know where that's at
21
It sure ain't the country
22
Oh, Lord knows, it ain't the country
23
It's because it's the way I see it every night and day
24
I hope to change it
25
I'm just at city boy,
26
City boy, that's me
27
Hey! City boy, city boy
28
Yeah, yeah, city boy,
29
Oh Lord, city boy
30
