Lyrics
Big City Life
It's noise and it's neon
Stop and go lights
Steel and concrete
Eyes seldom meet
And there's no one to lean on
For some folks it may be alright
But I don't think Big City Life's for me
It's a long fall from grace
This place is no Eden
You never feel safe
On uneasy streets
Locked in at night
I dream of freedom
For some folks it may be alright
But I don't think Big City Life's for me
BRIDGE
I was raised in a small town
Where roses climbed our picket fence
The tallest building had a steeple
Time moved slow and life made sense
One of these days
I'll hit the highway
I need some space
To stretch out and breathe
With the sun up ahead
And the skyline behind me
For some folks it may be alright
But I don't think Big City Life's for me
I'll point it west and drive all night
Cause I don't think Big City Life's for me
