Zippy Kid - Living In The City Lyrics

When I came to New York
I was green so green
It was the most magnificent
I ever seen

Scraping the sky
So high and so pure
This was the top
Of that I was sure

But down on the street
It ain't so pretty
But that's the price
Of living in the city

Living in the city
Living in the city
A town without pity
New York city

You work and you slave
To pay one more day
And then they say
Play boy, just play

There was a time
When I was on fire
Motivated by
A burning desire
To be one to the best
To be right there at the peak
I was foolish I guess
Not so very unique

So now I am busking
For rent and for bread
Trying to remember
Just what was she said

I know I will be
Much more that I am
But still I remember
To do what I can

Down on the street
It ain't so pretty
But that's the price
Of living in the city

Living in the city
Living in the city
A town without pity
New York city
