[Verse]
People in a show
All lined in a row
We just push on by
It's funny how hard we try

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you wanna know me? Be a friend of mine
I'll share some wisdom with you
Don't you ever get lonely from time to time?
Don't let the system get you down

[Chorus]
Big city life, me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life, here my heart have no base
And right now, Babylon de pon me case
Big city life, try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life, my heart have no base
And right now, Babylon de pon me case

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you wanna know me? Be a friend of mine
I'll share some wisdom with you
Don't you ever get lonely from time to time?
Don't let the system get you down
[Chorus]
Big city life, me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life, here my heart have no base
And right now, Babylon de pon me case

[Drop]
Don't let the system get you down

[Chorus]
Big city life, me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life, here my heart have no base
And right now, Babylon de pon me case
Big city life, try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life, my heart have no base
And right now, Babylon de pon me case
