[Verse 1]
It took seventeen years but I figured it out
I put my high heels on and I'm out of the house
I caught a Greyhound bus to the city of doubts
And now I'm running wild, running wild
I met an old queen with a fake Gucci bag
She said, "look at you kid, girl, I had what you had
You better get shit done so you never look back"
[Pre-Chorus]
And now I'm running wild, running out of time
Running out of-
Three, two, one
[Chorus]
Mama, fight all night with me
Mama, that's alright with me
Look at what you did, mama, look at me
I just wanna be a big city thing
Mama, you can't get mad at this drama
Spent all night on this
Imma pick it up, you can keep the keys
I just wanna be a big city thing
[Verse 2]
I fell in love with a drink at a Hollywood bar
Yeah, we were three blocks back from the Hollywood stars
She said, "kick it with me, and we can freak in my car"
And now we're running wild, running wild
I work two jobs so I'm not on the streets
I got a big dumb boss but his wifе's kinda sweet
We had a girls' night out, now she's teaming with mе
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, we're running wild, running out of time
Running out of-
Three, two, one, wow!
[Chorus]
Mama, fight all night with me
Mama, that's alright with me
Look at what you did, mama, look at me
I just wanna be a big city thing
Mama, you can't get mad at this drama
Spent all night on this
Imma pick it up, you can keep the keys
I just wanna be a big city thing
[Bridge]
City thing, city thing, city thing
City thing, city thing
Look what you did, now look at me
I'm about to be a big city thing
City thing, city thing, city thing
City thing, city thing
Look what you did, now look at me
I'm about to be a big city thing
La, la, la, la
La-la-la
La-la, la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La-la-la
La-la, la-la-la
[Chorus]
Mama (Mama), fight all with me
Mama (Mama), that's alright with me
Look at what ya did, mama, look at me
I just wanna be a big city thing (Be a bigger, bigger thing)
Mama, you can't get mad at this drama
Spent all night on this
Imma pick it up, you can keep the keys (Look at what ya did, mama, look at me)
I just wanna be a big city thing (Woah)
[Outro]
City thing, city thing, city thing
City thing, city thing
Look what you did, now look at me
I'm about to be a big city thing (Look what you did)
Wow!
City thing, city thing, city thing (I'm a big city kid)
City thing, city thing
Look what you did, now look at me
I'm about to be a big city thing, yeah
