Lyrics
Metro City Girl
by Kathy Lynne Hartman
She wakes up in the world and she doesn't care
Her makeup is flawless and so is her hair
Down on the sidewalk she's causing a stir
Clicking her high heels wearing fake fir
She's running down the hall now she trips and she falls
She loses her papers and she missed a few calls
Her boss is real mad mad cause she's doing so bad
But she's thinking bout stiletto heals
In the window she passed
And she just has to have
She's gonna stay and do overtime
And tonight she'll be out in the glamorous lights
The glamorous lights
She's a metro metro city girl
Metro metro city girl
She's a metro metro city
Metro metro city girl
She's wonderin' how she'll pay the rent
She lives on popcorn and candy canes
Lip gloss yummys are all she has
The girls want to hate her
The boys want to date her
What they don't won't hurt a thing
She'll never kiss and tell
She's gonna cast a spell
In seconds you can tell
She'll steal your heart right from the start
The day is done now she's ready for fun
Out on the town she's never let down
She'll tease and she'll wink
Make everyone think
That she's a star in the glamorous lights
She's wacky and styled and literally wild
People see her lashes she causes car crashes
Uptown down town party all around
The glamorous lights
She's in the glamorous lights
She's a metro metro city girl
Metro metro city girl
Metro metro city girl
