Lyrics Big Country – Big City
Text:
Waiting for the postal train
Blazers don’t keep out the rain
Packed your things in an old sports bag
And you left home
Where the bus ran late
And the club shut down
Took your daddy for the money you need
And you left home
Big City
Here I come
Just like your favourite son
I will have some real big fun
I left home
Pick up your money
Your place to be
Get a little flat
And a job you see
A video set ands color TV
And it’s real big fun
Two whole weeks
You walked the streets
From the penny arcade
To the family meet
Scared of the ugly
People you meet
And you go home
Big City
Here I come
Just like your favourite son
I left home
Big City
Here I come
Just like your favourite son
I will have some real big fun
I left home
Pick up your money
Your place to be
Get a little flat
And a job you see
A video set and color TV
And it’s real big fun
Two whole weeks
You walked the streets
From the penny arcade
To the family meet
Scared of the ugly
People you meet
And you go home
Big City
Here I come
Just like your favourite son
I will have some real big fun
I left home
