Joan Armatrading City Girl Lyrics

City Girl Lyrics

You came into town 

With your big ideas 

You'll find out 

That life just ain't that 

Way here



There's such a lot of 

Big fish in the sea 

But don't take my word 

Just sit back and you'll see



While closing the door 

Turned and said I've seen you baby 

But I've got you fooled 

And so has 

X million more...



There's such a lot of 

Pretence in this world 

But don't take my word 

Just sit back and you'll see



So settle down [settle down] 

City girl [city girl] 

Make life what it should be 

Lots of laughs [lots of laughs] 

All you want [all you want] 

That's how it oughtta to be



But don't take my word 

Just sit back and you'll see



While closing the door 

Turned and said I've seen you baby 

But I've got you fooled 

And so has 

X million more, yeah



There's such a lot of 

Pretence in this world 

But don't take my word 

Just sit back and you'll see



So settle down [settle down] 

City girl [city girl] 

Make life what it should be 

Lots of laughs [lots of laughs] 

All you want [all you want] 

That's how it oughtta to be



But don't take my word 

Just sit back and you'll see 

Don't take my word 

Just sit back and you'll see
