The City

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, I slept last night in the open Down by a redwood tree Yes, I slept last night in the open Just to let, just to let, just to let my soul free [Chorus] I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know I don't wanna go back into the city I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know I don't wanna go back into the city [Post-Chorus] It's just a long long long long lonely taxi ride Going nowhere to no one No day, no way [Verse 2] Well I woke in the morning early I could feel the good green Earth beneath my [?] Yes I woke in the morning early That why I knew, yes I knew I knew that the city was there [Chorus] I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know I don't wanna go back into the city I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know I don't wanna go back into the city [Post-Chorus] It's just a long, long, long, long lonely taxi ride Going uptown and downtown And 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round 'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round [Outro] It gets so hot in the city It gets so hot in the city (Get away) It gets so hot in the city (Sail away) It gets so hot in the city (Get away) It gets so hot in the city (Sail away) It gets so hot in the city (Sail away) It gets so hot in the city (Sail away) It gets so hot in the city (Sail away) It gets so hot in the city (Sail away) It gets so hot in the city (Sail away) It gets so hot in the city
