C-I-T-Y

On the South side of Detroit city
 I'm working all night on the line
 Under black smoke stacks
 Building Cadillacs, Jack
 Not one of them will ever be mine
 But I'm gonna make it out of the city
 Got an American dream that's true
 Want a big red car and
 A big white house and
 A blue-eyed girl like you
 And you can spend all my money, honey
 Na, na, na, na, your man has come
 It's all right
 I'm living in the C-I-T-Y
 Talking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Life here ain't no dream
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Walking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 You know what I mean
 Times are tough in the Motor City
 Where the bright lights used to shine
 Got two rooms looking
 Down a one-way street
 Staring out at a dead-end sign
 Little girl, I'm gonna be somebody
 If it's the last thing I ever do
 Buy the prettiest things
 Good money can bring
 There ain't nothing I won't do for you
 And you can spend
 All my money, honey
 Na, na, na, na, your man has come
 It's all right
 I'm living in the C-I-T-Y
 Talking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Life here ain't no dream
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Walking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 You know what I mean
 I'm living in the C-I-T-Y
 Talking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Life here ain't no dream
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Walking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 You know what I mean
 I'm living in the C-I-T-Y
 Talking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Life here ain't no dream
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Walking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 You know what I mean
 I'm living in the C-I-T-Y
 Talking hard times in the city
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
 Life here ain't no dream
 Living in the C-I-T-Y
