Keb' Mo' City Boy Lyrics

l hear a voice
And 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 want to go
Where the buffalo roam
l'm just a city boy
Looking for a home
l can't breathe
And l can't see
The city's no place for me
And l can't seem to find my way
l'm just existing from
day to day, yes l am
'Cause l want to be
Where my soul can run free
Well, l'm just a city boy
Looking for a home
Now, l don't
Want to be no prisoner
And l sure don't want
to be no slave
l want look out at night
And see stars in the sky
The Little Dipper
And the Milky Way
l can't sleep
lt's too loud
And everywhere
Everywhere l go, you know,
there seems to be a crowd
And l'm tired of
all these concrete streets
l want to feel the dirt
Up under my feet
'Cause l want to go
Somewhere where the buffalo roam
l'm just a city boy
Looking for a home
l want to go
Somewhere, somewhere where
the buffalo roam
Oh, l'm just a city boy
Looking for a home
Well, now, just a city boy
And l'm looking for a home
Whoa, just a city boy
