Ferlin Husky - Big City Lyrics

Ferlin Husky Lyrics

"Big City"

Well, I'm tired of this dirty old city
Entirely too much work and never enough play
And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks
Think I'll walk off my steady job today

Turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Montana
And give me all I've got coming to me
And keep your retirement
And your so-called social security
Big City, turn me loose and set me free

Been working every day since I was twenty
Haven't got a thing to show for anything I've done
There's folks who never work and they've got plenty
Think it's time some guys like me had some fun

So turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Montana
And give me all I've got coming to me
And you keep your retirement
And your so-called social security
Big City, turn me loose and set me free
Yeah, Big City, turn me loose and set me free
