Lyrics
GONE TO THE CITY
verse We all miss you, even when you walk by
and we try to talk, but you don't even try
In them fancy clothes, and your big fancy hair
I we still love you girl , but you don't seem to care
1st chorus Girl, you've gone to the city, but you're still here in town
All your friends and family, they seem to bring you down.
Wear'n your dress and hi heels, n' carrying that Gucci bag
Why'd you ever loose, you're boots and cowboy hat
verse Yeah, I sure miss you, in those cut off jeans
your long blond hair , blowing in the breeze
and our late nights, solving problems of the world
we were more that just friends, and I miss you girl
2nd chorus Girl, you've gone to the city, but you're still here in town
All your friends and family, they seem to bring you down
Wear'n your dress and high heels, n' carrying that Gucci Bag
Why'd you ever lose, your boots and cowboy hat
verse you're in our thoughts, your in our prayers
When you needed Him, I knew God would be there
You did what you had to, to get you through
Come back main street where you belong
3rd chorus You've come home from the city, I'm so glad your back in town
All your friends and family , glad to see you save and sound
You've lost your dress and high heels, and dropped that Gucci bag
It's so good to see you, in your cut off jeans, your boots and cowboy hat
