lirik lagu loudon wainwright iii - town & country
i’m in the city and the sirens are screamin’
all day and night long where it’s 24/7
i’m on a mission, i’m in the city, i’m here
i been in the country, out on an island
i feel good now, i’m d~mn near smilin’
i’m in the city, i can hardly believe that i’m here
i took the train when i got to the station
i felt a release ~ you could say it was elation
just to be back in the city with all of you people down here
thousands of faces i never seen
out of my mind in a fever dream
i’m in the city with all of you people down here
behind those masks is all those faces
i’m so excited seeing parking sp~ces
there’s talkin’ and there’s laughin’ and there’s screamin’ and there’s singin’ down here
i’m in the city, you better believe it
i’m done with the country, no fun, i had to leave it
the crickets made me nervous ~ i’m in the city, i’m here
last night we ate in a restaurant ~
fine wine, good food, all that we wanted
just like in the old days, sittin’ round, havin’ us a meal
but there was a moment that was a little unstable ~
(?) because a cat ran under the table
i guess the rats are all happy, there’s plenty to eat down here
(h~rn interlude)
a couple of drunkards on a subway train
made me feel right at home, no not much changes
when you’re in the city bright lights look pretty down here
i was afraid i might feel a little empty
but now that i’m here, go on and tempt me
i’m here to get tempted, i’m here to get rid of that fear
my dear mother was afraid of the city
she’d say, “don’t go there, loudie, it’s shady and it’s sh~tty”
she was raised in the country, what could that poor woman know?
my father went to town, he was a workin’ slob
getting in to trouble was his other job
there’s plenty of trouble in the city, that’s why folks go
(all right, let’s go)
(organ solo)
tomorrow morning i’ll be back on that train
get me to the station i’m goin’ insane
get me out of this city it’s a little too crazy for me
i need trees, salt water, clean air
warm feet, fireplace, and a rockin’ chair
mother knew best ~ the city’s too sh~tty for me
yeah, livin’ in the city and the sirens are screamin’
all day and night long, 24/7
i’m on a mission, i’m in the city, i’m here
been in the country, stuck on an island
i feel good now, i’m d~mn near smilin’
i’m in the city, i can hardly believe that i’m here
