Back to the City Lyrics

Artist: The Guess Who
Album: Rockin'

(Cummings/Winter)

Beware of lies
Theyâ‚¬â„¢ll always take you by surprise
Bringinâ‚¬â„¢ pieces of pain
Youâ‚¬â„¢ll maybe never sleep again

Me and Sailor workinâ‚¬â„¢ on a secret relation
Down in the soda sunlight
Picked up on a jug and my calendar sweetheart
And we were rockinâ‚¬â„¢ lightly
We really got to rockinâ‚¬â„¢ lightly
Deep, deep down thatâ‚¬â„¢s where I belong
Sweet street light never done me no wrong
Iâ‚¬â„¢m goinâ‚¬â„¢ back, back, back to the city

So beware of man
Heâ‚¬â„¢ll never tell you where you stand
Bringinâ‚¬â„¢ pieces of pain
Youâ‚¬â„¢ll maybe never sleep again

Tinker, tailor, sailor, mailer
Bows and buttons
Thank you all for reason
Meet me in the alley where the road gets dark
And weâ‚¬â„¢ll be rockinâ‚¬â„¢ lightly
Deep, deep down thatâ‚¬â„¢s where I belong
Sweet street light never done me no wrong
Iâ‚¬â„¢m goinâ‚¬â„¢ back, back, back to the city
