Big Grey City

I can't live in your big grey city, daddy

I can't live in your town

I can't find a river or anything pretty

Your big grey city just brings me down

I need to lie, feelin' the grass

Feel it growin' around me

Hold on tight to the jungle of trees

Let the branches around me

I can't live in your big grey city, daddy

I can't live in your town

I can't find a river or anything pretty

Your big grey city just brings me down

I need to see the mountains and hills

Smell the sweet summer flowers

I wanna feel the dew on the leaves

After the warm summer showers

I can't live in your big grey city, daddy

I can't live in your town

I can't find a river or anything pretty

Your big grey city just brings me down

How can you live piled up in here?

With steel and skyscrapers only

A life without the flowers and trees

Makes you live grey-faced and lonely

I can't live in your big grey city, daddy

I can't live in your town

I can't find a river or anything pretty

Your big grey city just brings me down

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...
