I left my hometown, baby
There be big things going down
I done left my hometown, baby
There be big things going down
Now in this late afternoon
It ain't none too soon
I hit that big city, baby
The streets be paved with gold
I hit the big city, baby
The streets here, made of gold
I'm standing versuri.us on my own
Them streets be dirty and cold
Here I am in the city
I should of stayed at home
Here I am in the city
And I'm standing alone
What I see ain't so pretty
Surely turn me to stone?
