"City Girls" lyrics

"City Girls"

The lower east side
You get yourself to school
You learn the street signs
Before you learn to tie your shoes
Watch graffiti dry
The playground raised no fools

All you city girls
Yeah yeah yeah
All you city girls
All you city girls
Yeah yeah yeah
All you city girls

You jump that turnstyle
Climb up those subway stairs
And get them strong thighs
From double dutch and dares
So when you come alive
You know what got you there

All you city girls
Yeah yeah yeah
All you city girls
All you city girls
Yeah yeah yeah
All you city girls

You don't have to be a player to make it rain
You don't have to be a millionaire no no no no no no no
You don't have to be a baller to drop a dollar to help your fellow man
Open your third eyes
And get yourself streetwise

Oo oo oo
Oo ooh
Oo oo oo

You learn to scrape by
Get pusherman radar
Take in that skyline
Your compass after dark
And in the summertime
Your body is your spark

All you city girls
All you city girls
Yeah yeah yeah
All you city girls
Yeah yeah yeah
All you city girls

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
Open your third eyes
And get yourself streetwise

Do do do do do do do do do do
Yeah yeah

Oo oo oo
Oo ooh
Oo oo oo
Oo ooh
Come on

All you city girls make it rain
All you city girls know who you are
All you city girls don't feel no shame
Open your third eyes
And get yourself streetwise

Oo oo oo
Oo ooh
Oo oo oo
Oo ooh
Oo oo oo
Oo ooh
Oo oo oo
Oo ooh

All you city girls
All you city girls
All you city girls
All you city girls
All you city girls
All you city girls
All you city girls
All you city girls
