Lyrics:
Out in the country
Far from all the soot and noise of the city
There's a village green
Oh, it's been a long time
Since I last set eyes
Out in the country
Far from all the soot and noise of the city
There's a village green
Oh, it's been a long time
Since I last set eyes
a factory job and runs a big machine
He don't miss the farm or the fields of green
Now the city's just a prison without fences
His job is just
Macho City
Macho City
Macho City
Macho City (Macho City)
Welcome to the entertainment
Here now are the facts (Macho City)
Presented by
to the water
River of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees
Laughing as it passes through the endless summer
Making for the sea
In the lazy water
Macho City
Macho City
Macho City
Macho City (Macho City)
Welcome to the entertainment
Here now are the facts (Macho City)
Presented by
Macho City
Macho City
Macho City
Macho City (Macho City)
Welcome to the entertainment
Here now are the facts (Macho City)
Presented by
really tough that you
keep the record player going by rubbing two sticks together. And if all else fails, throw
the record away... build your own green
to the West Coast, daddy
And let me be where I belong
Hey now, Philly, you street city
Been down by the railroad track
I know you can be a sweet city
But
should be
Thing's I'd do differently if I could do them again
I've always loved spring time, the passing of winter
The green of the new leaves
a look that wasn't pretty
And she turned into concrete and steel
And she said, "I'll take the city"
Now the cars go by on the interstate
And my pack is
New cities by the sea
Skyscrapers are winking
Some hills are never seen
The universe expanding
We're gazing out to sea
Blue dolphins are
of middle aged school girls
Oh, being chased by Chinese dragons
[Chorus]
Whiskey and green tea
At the KTV
(Sing along with me)
Whiskey and green tea
And they wandered in
From the city of St. John
Without a dime
Wearing coats that shined
Both red and green
Colors from their sunny island
Do you see that thing
I'm sure it's love
Would you do one thing
New York's in love
The city grew wings in the back of the night
The clouds are stuck
A city freeze
Get on your knees
Pray for warmth and green paper.
A city drought
You're down and out
See your trousers don't taper.
Saddle up
Ever since I was a child
I've turned it over in my mind
I sang by that piano, tore my yellow dress and
Cried and cried and cried
And I don't
forever
Flew in all the Bitch Pack friends from the city
Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names
And blew through the money
Wilson, Wilson
Wilson, Wilson
Wilson
Once upon a time there was a mountain
That rose out of a vast green forest
And in the forest there were birds
Go to the city away from the land, stand in a line
Where they stamp your hand, wind up at a dance
You want to energize, is it just by chance?
People
Day breaks over the city of my childhood
Daybreak over the city I called home
Where the sage met the sea and the groves were sweet and green
It's
probably no great
Novelty for the Reverend Al Green a visit to
The white A-frame structure in the Whitehaven
District, mere shouting distance from
Elvis
get to you!
Easy in the city,
Easy in the rooms.
Isn't it a pity
Time goes by so soon ...
Time goes by so soon.
If I can find the secret in the green
he was fighting for
Or the lovers on the blankets
That the city turned to whores
With memories of green kissed by the sun
You can say the soul
