"City Life" lyrics

Getting tired of the city life
Lord, I'm feeling mighty, mighty, mighty low
Yes, a little worried about my wife
And how my kid might grow

I'm working on a way back home

I wish I had time in hand
I'd change the city life back to natural land
Yes, I wouldn't let the mountain fall
But the way things are now, there's no hope at all

I'm working on a way back home

Off the city streets where
Nobody wants to live there
About your life, they don't care
Why don't we learn to share?
I'm going where
The neon lights won't blind me
Because all they do is bind me
And every time I sing
Lord, they want to sign me

You know I'll take you in a few more years
If there's any kind of life at all, at all, at all
But the tree that's by me now
Will soon begin to fall

I'm working on a way back home

Off the city streets where
Nobody wants to live there
About your life, they don't care
Why don't we learn to share?
I'm going where
The neon lights won't blind me
Because all they do is bind me
And every time I sing
Lord, they want to sign me

I'm tired of the city life
I'm working on a way back home
I'm tired of the city life
I'm working on a way back home
