The City Songtext
von Lady Blackbird

Lucille was a mother workin′ for the man
Hardworking women always got a plan
She'll get there
We′ll get there

Get money for the kids and collect the pay
Save that money, gonna move away
To get there
We'll get there

She never thought a struggle was more than a bet
And you never learn nothing from the good times that you get


Show me the joy in the city
No time for pity
Love down and dirty
You take me
Make me laugh 'til tomorrow
No time for sorrow
Beg, steal, and borrow
Just take me there
If you can′t find it in the heart of the city
If you can′t find it in the city

Tommy was a crypto millionaire
Lean in his walk with the jet black hair
He get there
He got there

See him wave with a winning hand
She caught the eye of a well-fed man
She got there
They get there

He never thought a struggle was more than a bet
When two worlds collide, look what you get


Show me the joy in the city
No time for pity
Love down and dirty
You take me
Make me laugh 'til tomorrow
No time for sorrow
Beg, steal, and borrow
Just take me there
If you can′t find it in the heart of the city
If you can't find it in the city

Here they are, covered in spring
Chime, chime, chime
And the church bells ring
They got there
They got there

Show me the joy in the city
No time for pity
Love down and dirty
You take me
Make me laugh ′til tomorrow
No time for sorrow
Beg, steal, and borrow
Just take me there
If you can't find it in the heart of the city
If you can′t find it in the city

Isn't it-, isn't it a pity?
