City girl

City girl

City girls, they all right
They just want you for the night
When the morning comes at dawn
City girls, they all gone

Know the daylight can be sad
When you feel that you’ve been had
Only night time brings the price
City girl, she thinks it’s right

What’s a poor boy gonna do
If he wants a girl like you?
Can’t afford no diamond rings
Or all those other fancy things

There’s only one thing I can give
A song down where you live
I’ll sing to you hear the sound
City girl, please, stay around

    and all I can say about that is that he was truly a lyrical legend besides being a darn good guitarist 🙂
