Big Grey City Songtext
von Gale Garnett

I can′t live in your big grey city, daddy
I can't live in your town
I can′t find a river or anything pretty
Your big grey city just brings me down

I need to lie, feelin' the grass
Feel it growin' around me
Hold on tight to the jungle of trees
Let the branches around me

I can′t live in your big grey city, daddy
I can′t live in your town
I can't find a river or anything pretty
Your big grey city just brings me down


I need to see the mountains and hills
Smell the sweet summer flowers
I wanna feel the dew on the leaves
After the warm summer showers

I can′t live in your big grey city, daddy
I can't live in your town
I can′t find a river or anything pretty
Your big grey city just brings me down

How can you live piled up in here?
With steel and skyscrapers only
A life without the flowers and trees
Makes you live grey-faced and lonely

I can't live in your big grey city, daddy
I can′t live in your town
I can't find a river or anything pretty
Your big grey city just brings me down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...
