Well, I'm down and I'm out
And I've had it to here with the city life
Gonna grab me a plane
That'll take me back home to my folks
Maybe real soon

Just as soon as I get a few dollars
Ahead well, you'll see
Gonna show up in person
Instead of those letters I never write
How does that sound

You joke that I got a deal
That's gonna make me a million tomorrow
Can't [unverified] to let it come through
If I just hang around for a little while
Just temporarily

City life
Oh, city life
Oh, city life
City life, city life
