City Lights

In the style of

Liza Minnelli

Lyrics

the little old lady
sat on the porch
of the farmhouse

the little old lady
rocked back
and forth
and crocheted

oh listen
to the crickets
look at the rooster
smell the hay
i told her
and see the pretty
little egg
that the hen just laid

the little old lady
took off her glasses
and squinted
and how
she responded
literally had me
floored

she said
it's nice to meet
someone
who appreciates
the beauty
that nature initiates

it's sweet to hear
but me my dear
i'm truly
bored

i
miss
those
city lights

those sparklin'
city lights
those twinklin'
city lights
lurin' my eyes

i love those
city nights
the color of
city sights
the shine under
city lights
tinting the skies

a new mown hay
gives me hay fever
there's the rooster
where's my cleaver

so laid back
my mind might crack
and when
the thresher's up
my pressure's up

city lights
oh i long
for those city lights
the bulbs of those
beaming brights
beckonin' a-me there
be there

take your crickets
and go shove 'em
urban crises
how i love 'em
grime and grit and
pretty city lights

walkin' lanes
to pick a daisy
that could drive a
person crazy

homemade bread
lays here like lead
and polly's
peach preserves
oh please
my nerves

city lights
how i long for
those city lights
the bulbs of those
beaming brights
beckonin' me there
oh be there

styes and stables
sure are smelly
let me sniff some
kosher deli
brightly lit
by pretty city lights

pluck your lily
of the valley
let me sally
up some alley
dimly lit
by pretty city lights

country air
means zilch to me
i won't breathe nothin'
i can't see

so let me quit
and hit
those
pretty city lights
hit them
city
take me home now

city lights
love them lights

fairs and socials
ain't no plusses
i score more on
crosstown busses
brightly lit
by pretty city lights

hold that udder
churn that butter
me i'd rather
jump some gutter
dimly lit by
pretty city lights

swap the south
go on
and fill your pails
honey
just let me plant
my buns down in
bloomingdale's

yes let me quit
and hit
those
pretty
city lights
love them city
dig them lights
