City Child

He’s looking at the stars in the sky
And tears are in his eyes
Still thinking 'bout his home in the town
He’s longing home
So many years have gone since he left
Still tryin' to forget, ooh-ooh…
But memories and roots are too strong
He knows for sure, there ain’t no cure
City child, longing home
A city child who once went wrong
City child, gotta hide
A city child who is on the run
City child
He ran away one night in the dark
Things turned out pretty hard
But somehow he can’t find peace of mind
He can’t deny, that he’s a…
City child, longing home
A city child who once went wrong
City child, gotta hide
A city child who is on the run
Whoa, yeah
City child, longing home
He’s on the run
Oh-oh-oh…
Oh-oh-oh…
Ooh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Alright, yeah!
Oh, yeah
