Lyrics

[Verse 1] I got the time, I got my feet Let's go hit the street High in the city High in the city [Verse 2] I got my mace and you got your knife You gotta protect your own life High in the city High in the city [Chorus] I wanna get high in the city I wanna stay alive here in the city I wanna stay high in the city High in the city High in the city [Verse 3] Let's not walk down Sutton Place You know everybody there got an Akitas High in the city High in the city [Verse 4] Don't wanna talk politics today I feel too good, let me have my way High in the city High in the city [Verse 5] Watch out for that guy on your right Seen him on the news last Saturday night He was high in the city High in the city [Verse 6] Hey, look they're setting fire to that jeep There's not much you can keep High in the city High in the city [Chorus] I wanna get high in the city I wanna stay alive in the city I wanna stay high in the city High in the city High in the city [Verse 7] So many people feeling low And there's only one way to go to Get high in the city High in the city [Verse 8] Let's grab a pie, let's hit the park I'll kiss and hug you till it gets dark Here in the city Getting high in the city [Outro] (High in the city and you're looking so pretty) (Feelin' pretty witty, gettin' high off of the city) (Hi-ai-ai-ai in the city) (High in the city) (High in the city and you're looking so pretty) (Feelin' pretty witty, gettin' high off of the city) (Hi-ai-ai-ai in the city) (High in the city) (High in the city and you're looking so pretty) (Feelin' pretty witty, gettin' high off of the city) (Hi-ai-ai-ai in the city)
