Living in the country
Far away from home,
How i miss those city lights,
Yes i'm lost when i'm alone.
Grew up on the sidewalk,
Always had a friend,
Every day was something new
And the nights would never end.
I can hear you oh calling,
Life in the city is calling.
I went away without knowing
Changes you put me through.
Calling, life in the city is calling,
Calling me back and i'm feeling
Like i belong to you.
Living in the country
Gave me time to see
Traffic jams and neon lights,
Baby mean a lot to me.
Bought myself some freedom
But it just don't feel the same
As the crowded streets and subway seats
And the place i got my name.
I can hear you oh calling,
Life in the city is calling.
I went away without knowing
Changes you put me through.
Calling, life in the city is calling,
Calling me back and i'm feeling
Like i belong to you
