Citiest People Lyrics

Melanie Safka Citiest People

To the citiest people
In the whole wide world
You've been unkind
To an un-city girl
From the stone walls you grew, so
I'm not blaming you
But look what the city -
Just look how the city
Has taken a pretty
And made an ugly of you
Just look what the city
Is doing to you

To the citiest people
In the citiest town
I'm not the one
To be putting you down
From the stone walls you grew, but
I grew there too
And I know that the city
The dirty old city
Can take such a pretty
And make an ugly of you
Just look what the city
Is doing to you
