"If You're Going To The City" lyrics
"If You're Going To The City"
(originally by Mose Allison)
If you're goin' to the city
You better have some cash
If you're goin' to the city
You better have some cash
'Cause the people in the city
They don't take no trash
If you're goin' to the city
You better bolt your door
If you're goin' to the city
You better bolt your door
They'll take all what you got
And come back for more
In the city, in the city
In the city, in the city
In the city, pretty baby
In the city
If you're goin' to the city
There's one thing I hope
If you're goin' to the city
There's one thing I hope
Don't take money from a woman
Or mess around with dope
Or mess around with dope
Don't mess around with dope
Stay its cool
Alright

Tindersticks - "You'll Have To Scream Louder" Yes, I know you're unhappy
Yes, I know you've been crying
Can't you see by my eyes
I've been crying, too?
But you'll have to scream louder
Because no one is listening
You can scream, you can shout...
