Left my life in Tijuana

Lost my love in Ashbury

Made a fortune in Havana

Where I done my misery



Now I'm headin' for the city

To meet my destiny

Yes I'm headin' for the city

To meet my destiny



Left my love in Atlanta

Took the plane to Birmingham

Lost my heart in Vienna

Got it back in Amsterdam



Now I'm headin' for the city

To meet my destiny

I keep headin' for the city

To meet my destiny



To meet my destiny



Quit playin' poker in Las Vegas

No more trips to Miami

I did my time down in Memphis

Were I left a part of me

I left that part of me behind



Now I'm headin' for the city

To meet my destiny

I keep headin' to that city

To meet my destiny



To meet my destiny
