Iris Dement Big City lyrics

I`m tired of this dirty old city

entirely too much work and never enough play

and I`m tired of these dirty old sidewalks

I think I`ll walk off my steady job today



Chorus:

So turn me loose, set me free

somewhere in the middle of Montana

Gimme all I`ve got coming to me

and keep your retirement

and your, so called, social security

Big City turn me loose and set me free



I`ve been working every day since I was twenty

I ain`t got a thing to show for anything I`ve done

Some folks never work and they`ve got plenty

I think it`s time girls like me had some fun



(chorus)



Big City turn me loose and set me free
