|
You pack your bags and you move to the city |
|
There's something missin' here at home |
|
You fix your hair and you lookin' real pretty |
|
It's time to gettin' out on your own |
|
You're always fightin' with your mama and your papa |
|
Your family life is one big pain |
|
When you gonna move to the city |
|
To the city where it all began |
|
You gotta move, you gotta move |
|
Ma, ma, ma, time you gotta move |
|
You stole your mamas' car |
|
And your daddys' plastic credit card |
|
You're sixteen and you can't get a job |
|
You're not goin' very far |
|
You're always fightin' with the teachers and the police |
|
This life is much too insane |
|
When are you, you gonna move to the city |
|
To the city where it all began |
|
You gotta move, you gotta move |
|
Ma, ma, ma, time you gotta move |
|
To the city with the real nitty gritty |
|
Aw child ain't it a pity |
|
Sometimes it gets too shitty |
|
Come on and hit me |
|
You're on the streets and it ain't so pretty |
|
At least you get to do what you please |
|
You do what you gotta do for the money |
|
At times you end up on your knees |
|
Always buyin' with the local desert junkies |
|
This city life is one big pain |
|
But you, you had to move to the city |
|
To the city where it all began |
|
You gotta move, you gotta move |
|
Ma, ma, ma, time you gotta move |
|
To the city with the real nitty gritty |
|
Aw child ain't it a pity |
|
Sometimes it gets too shitty |
|
Come on and hit me |
