I Dig a Big Town Songtext
von Dan Penn

I dig a big town
With lights so bright
Where after sundown
The skyscrapers hide the light
Oh, I wear my dark glasses
Don′t wanna go blind
As I make my way
Through all this neon sunshine

I dig a big town, yeah
I dig a big town, mm-mm

I dig a fun town
Where people laugh and play
You can get unwound real fast
And dance your blues away
Ah, if you lookin' for love
Come through this concrete world
′Cause the sidewalks are crowded
With pretty girls


In a big town only, a fun town
A big town

Noisy traffic runnin' eight lanes deep
Window shoppers eyein' a new merchandise
I dig a big down that never sleeps
And where excitement never dies

I dig a big town
Oh, where things are going on
Right smack downtown
I never have to be alone
And if I speak to some girl
And she don′t treat me sweet
There′s always another one
Further on down the street

I dig a big town, yeah
I dig a big town

(Big town) Make it 'round New York City
Ooh, I get my kicks around on New Orleans
Come in, Fort Worth, Texas
I say come on down a big town
