Fool For The City Lyrics By Foghat

    goin’ to the city got you on my mind
    country sure is pretty i’ll leave it all behind
    this is my decision i’m comin’ home to stay this time

    ’cause i’m a fool for the city i’m a fool for the city
    fool for the city i’m a fool for the city

    breathin’ all the clean air sittin’ in the sun
    when i get my train fare i’ll get up and run
    i’m ready for the city air pollution here i come

    ’cause i’m a fool for the city i’m a fool for the city
    i’m a fool for the city i’m a fool for the city

    i’m like a fish out of water
    i’m just a man in a hole
    the city lights turn my blues into gold
    i ain’t no country boy i’m just a homesick man
    i’m gonna hit the grit just as fast as i can

    i’m tired of layin’ back hangin’ around
    i’m gonna catch that train then i’ll be city bound

    i ain’t no country boy i’m just a homesick man
    i’m gonna hit the grit just as fast as i can
    i’ll get off on main street step into the crowd
    sidewalk under my feet yeah traffic’s good and loud
    when i see my inner city child i’ll be walkin’ on a cloud

    ’cause i’m a fool for the city i’m a fool for the city
    i’m a fool for the city i’m a fool for the city
    i’m a fool fool for the city a fool for the city fool for the city
    i’m a fool fool for the city a fool for the city fool for the city
    i’m a fool fool for the city a crazy fool fool for the city

    i’m a fool yea fool for the city a fool for the city fool for the city
    fool for the city
    fool for the city

    i ain’t no country boy woo

    fool for the city
    fool for the city

    woo
    fool for the city
    fool for the city
    a fool for the city fool for the city fool for the city
    whoo fool for the city fool for the city
