Song Lyrics

Going to the city, got you on my mind,
Country sure is pretty, I'll leave it all behind,
This is my decision, I'm coming home to stay this time

'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city,
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

Breathing all the clean air, sitting in the sun,
When I get my train fare, I'll get up and run
I'm ready for the city, air pollution here I come

'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city,
I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

I'm like a fish out of water, I'm just a man in a hole
The city lights turn my blues into gold
I ain't no country boy, I'm just a homesick man
I'm gonna hit the grit just as fast as I can

I'm tired of laying back, hanging around,
I'm gonna catch that train, then I'll be city bound

I ain't no country boy, I'm just a homesick man
I'm gonna hit the grit just as fast as I can

I'll get off on Main Street, step into the crowd,
Sidewalk under my feet, yeah, traffic's good and loud
When I see my inner city child, I'll be walkin' on a cloud

'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city,
I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
I'm a fool, (Fool for the city)
A fool for the city, (Fool for the city)
I'm a fool, (Fool for the city)
A fool for the city, (Fool for the city)
I'm a fool, (Fool for the city)
A crazy fool, (Fool for the city)

I'm a fool yea, (Fool for the city)
A fool for the city, (Fool for the city)
(Fool for the city) (Fool for the city)
I ain't no country boy, woo! (Fool for the city)
(Fool for the city)

Woo! (Fool for the city) (Fool for the city)
A Fool for the city (Fool for the city) (Fool for the city)
Who! (Fool for the city) (Fool for the city)
