come down from the city tonight
turn off all those big city lights
got a full country moon, Hatchie River in sight
it’s rollin` so pretty, it’s burning so bright
come down from the city tonight
come on down from your big city life
come feel the rain, see the lightning strike
come down from the city, we gonna go out tonight
we all know that you went so far away
so far away from this place you once knew
we always hear ’bout those city games they play
somebody win, somebody lose
way down here, we still search for our own space
sometimes it’s better when you got less to choose
but I bet you got some real nice place to stay
and someone who loves you, like I used to
come down from the city tonight
down to the Grove, we got whiskey and wine
the critters they roam, all the birds are in flight
come down from the city, we’re gonna do you up right
come down from the city tonight
I’m gonna give you a country cab ride
this old flatbed ain’t no luxury flight
but it flies out the city–we gonna fly out of sight
come down from the city tonight
turn off all those big city lights
got a full country moon, Hatchie River in sight
it’s rollin` so pretty, it’s burning so bright
come down from the city tonight
come on down from your big city life
come feel the rain, see the lightning strike
come down from the city, we gonna go out tonight
