the garden of the blues suite: the great city - shirley horn lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
if ever you’re restless and you’re feeling low
don’t think that the city is the place to go
well, i’ll tell you one thing worth thinking about
if you come in, be sure you can get back out

[verse 2]
the great city’s playboys, they’re always around
to help build your hopes up, and help drag you down
they’ll leave you with nothing worth thinking about
so now you’re in, and now you want back out

[bridge]
the great city
cold cruel stone
seven million people
and each one standin’ alone

[verse 3]
you’re caught in a whirlpool of east side cafés
wherе love is a cr*p game of beards and bеret
and blues are the main things you’re drinking about
so now you’re in, and now you want back out

[bridge]
the great city
cold cruel stone
seven million people
and each one standin’ alone
[verse 3]
you’re caught in a whirlpool of east side cafés
where love is a cr*p game of beards and beret
the blues are the main things you’re drinking about
so now you’re in, and now you want back out

[outro]
shoo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
you want back out

[scatting]
