I hear a voice, l hear the sound
The sound of my shoes, shuffling on out of town
Too many people, too many cars
Take me to Memphis, Mercury, or Mars'Cause l wanna go
Where the buffalo roam
Just a city boy
Looking for a homeI can't breathe, can't see
The city's no place for me
I can't seem to find my way
Just existing from day to dayBut I want to be
Where my soul can run free
I'm just a city boy
Looking for a homeNow, l don't wanna be no prisoner
And l sure don't wanna be no slave
Want look out at night and see stars in the sky
The Little Dipper and the milky wayI can't sleep, it's too loud
Everywhere, where l go, you know there seems to be a crowd
Tired of all these concrete streets
I want to feel the dirt up under my feetI wanna go
Where where the buffalo roam
I'm just a city boy
Looking for a homeI wanna go
Where where the buffalo roam
I'm just a city boy
Looking for a homeI'm just a city boy
Looking for a home
City boy
Looking for
