Roy Orbison City Life

Coffer cafe's dizzy with city lights

Concrete sidewalks busy with friendly fights

But that's alright, baby, it's alright

Come, go with me and you will see

City life, city life

Loud paper boys yelling yesterday's news

A peddler man selling what you can't use

That's alright, baby, it's alright

Come, go with me, you will see

City life, city life

I need you when the sun goes down

You pick me up when you're around

Come on, come on now, we can have a good time

This town ain't much unless you're here with me

It's like a woman

Crazy just like a puppy, lazy

Just like a pretty jealous wife

I can't get free from city life

Secluded bars humming behind the scenes

Hot wild guitars strumming, promising dreams

That's alright, baby, it's alright

Come, go with me and you will see

City life, city life

I don't want to be alone

Stay with me now, don't go home

It's a date, we'll stay out late and party

City life's okay when you're with me

It's like a lion sleeping

Just like a willow weeping

A melting pot for fun and strife

Can't get away from city life

City life, baby, city life

It's alright, baby, it's alright

City life
