Country sure is pretty, I leave it all behind
This is my decision, I'm comin' home to stay this time
(Cause I'm a)

Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

Breathin' all the clean air, sittin' in the sun
When I get my train fare, I'll get up and run
I'm heading for the city, evolution here I come
(Cause I'm a)

Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

I ain't no country boy, I'm just a home-sick man
I'm gonna hit the brick just as fast as I can
I get off on Main Street, step into the crowd
Sidewalk under my feet, yeah, traffic's good and loud
When I see my inner-city, child, I'll be walkin' on a cloud
(Cause I'm a)

Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
