big city living - harry belafonte lyrics

Loading...

i spend the winter in the city
cuddling close to keep me warm
soon as i knew the spring was breaking
i got the urge for movin´ on

i like the highway roads unfolding
i like to breathe sweet country air
hearing the note that the breeze is holding
lightens my burden eases my cares

i got to stop this city living
and get back to some solid ground
i got to take what life is giving
i open the window, i hear the wind blow
something will call me, off i’ll go i know

when i had grown to one and twenty
i left the country far behind
got mе a job in pittsburg city
loading on iron from the mine

working me hеart off thru december
saving my money when i can
big city boys will try to cheat you
women will curse you like a man
i got to stop this city living
and get back to some solid ground
i got to take what life is giving
often all easy you can believe me
no one to tell me when to come and when to go

when i go back to west virginia
i’m gonna set for quite a spell
mamma will talk about salvation
daddy is goin’ to give me h*ll

but i never had no long ambition
wanna be easy in my mind
i need a horse that needs a rider
i need a girl that’s sweet and kind

i got to stop this city living
and get back to some solid ground
i gotta take what life is giving
sp*ce all around me, no troubles to haunt me
drinking sweet country cider
taking things real slow
