Fireflies and dogfights
Runnin´ hot in the heat
Street noise, another bribe
Things too hard to believe-
so head out

My heart´s in the country
My feet´s in the city with you
All my friends are eatin´ sushi
Talkin´ bad about you know who who who
My tongue´s talkin´ riddles
But I just can´t seem to find a clue
So I take a swig of whiskey
And jump into the saddle with you you you

And I just can´t seem to break the shackles of the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
And I just can´t seem to break the shackles of the city boy blues

Cats in the alley
Rats in my snakeskin boots
All my neighbors think I´m crazy
And my girl thinks I´m losin´ my cool cool cool And I just can´t seem to break
the
shackles of the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
And I just can´t seem to break the shackles of the city boy blues

Don´t look to Jesus to change your seasons
It´s the American dream
Souls of gypsies, road of stone
Can´t seem to find no peace so head out

And I just can´t seem to break the shackles of the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
I got the city boy blues
And I just can´t seem to break the shackles of the city boy blues

I got the blues, I got the blues, I got the blues,
I got the blues
I got the blues, I got the blues, I got the blues,
