City girls, they [A] all right.
They just want you [E] for the night.
When the morning comes [B] at dawn.
City girls, [E] they all gone.
Know the daylight [A] can be sad.
When you feel that [E] you've been had.
Only night time [B] brings a prize.
City girls, she [E] thinks it's right.

What's a poor boy [A] gonna do [E] [A] if he wants a [E] girl like you?
Can't afford no [B] diamond ring or all those other [E] fancy things.
There's only one thing [A] I can give.
A song down [E] where you live.
Sing to you, [B] hear the sound.
City girl, please [E] stay around.
