Merle Haggard
Big City (Live At Brick Breeden Fieldhouse, Bozeman, MT / March 22, 2017)
Yeah I'm tired of this dirty old city
And tired of too much work
And never pay enough play
And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks
Think I'll walk off my steady job today
Turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Montana
Give me all I've got comin' to me
You can keep your retirement
And your so-called Social Security
Big city turn me loose and set me free
I've been workin' everyday since I was twenty
Haven't got a thing to show for all the things I've done
There's folks that never work and they've got plenty
Think it's time some guys like me had some fun
So turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Bozeman, Montana
And give me all I've got comin' to me
Yeah you can keep your retirement
And your so-called Social Security
Big city turn me loose and set me free
Yeah big city, turn me loose and set me free
