Quincy Jones
The Great City
[Verse 1]
If ever you're restless and you're feeling low
Don't think that the city is the place to go
Well, I'll tell you one thing worth singing about
If you come in be sure you can get back out
[Verse 2]
The great city's playboys, they're always around
To help build your hopes up, and help drag you down
They'll leave you with nothing worth singing about
So now you're in, and now you want back out
[Bridge]
The great city, cold cruel stone
Seven million people, and each one standin' alone
[Verse 3]
You're caught in a whirlpool of east side cafes
Whеre love is a cocktail of beards and bеrets
And blues are the main things you're drinking about
So now you're in, and now you want back out
[Outro]
You want back out
You want back out
You want back out
You want back out
You want back out
