Move to the city

Move to the city Lyrics

You pack your bags
And you move to the city 
There's somethin' missin' here at home 
You fix your hair 
And you're lookin' real pretty 
It's time to get it out on your own 
You're always fightin' 
With your mama and you papa 
Your family life is one big pain! 
When you, you gonna move to the city? 
Into the city where it all began 

You gotta move 
You gotta move 
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma 
Time you gotta move 

You stole your mama's car 
And your daddy's plastic credit card 
You're sixteen and you can't get a job 
You're not goin' very far 
You're always ridin' 
With the teachers and the police 
This life is much too insane! 
When you, you gonna move to the city? 
Into the city where it all began 

You gotta move 
You gotta move 
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma 
Time you gotta move 
Right to the city 
Where the real men get it 
Aw, child, ain't it a pity? 
Sometimes it gets too sh*tty! 
Come on and hit me! 

You're on the streets 
And it ain't so pretty 
You need to get a new what you please 
You do what you gotta do for the money 
At times you end up on your knees! 

I'm always buyin' 
With the local and the junkies 
This city life is one big pain! 
But you, you had to move to the city 
Into the city where it all began 

You gotta move 
You gotta move 
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma 
Time you gotta move 
Oh right to the city 
With the real nitty gritty 
Aw, child, ain't it a pity? 
Sometimes it gets too sh*tty! 
Come on and hit me!
