City Livin (Album Version) - G. Love & Special Sauce

City livin' lalalalala

City livin' lalalalala

City livin' is so tuff

Scrubbing floors on your hands and knees

City livin' can get so hot when

It's a hundred and three degrees

City livin' can make you mean

Please don't stand so close to me

Franky's got a dream that's gonna get him paid

Jenny said Don't forget me babe

City livin' lalalalala

City livin' lalalalala

Tony's making calls

Swinging 50 bags and E's in the parking lot

Parking cars working for tips

He said These rich mothersuckers don't give me zip

Christina's in the back of the limousine

Working all day for the agency

About to go party 'til the sun comes up

And that same old song is keeping her up

City livin' lalalalala

City livin' lalalalala

What you gonna do when the sun don't shine on you

What you gonna do when the sun don't shine on you

You just keep on shining through

Keep on shining through

Keep on shining through

Just keep on shining through

Now Ty is washing dishes at some fancy restaurant

And his check sure ain't stretching too far

'Cause he got too much month for the end of the money

And not enough money for the end of the month

M.J. and Red are running the clubs

Making the scene every night

Bottles and tables for the fellas and the honey's

And damn these girls are fine

But Luis don't know much about that delivering groceries

From the corner store

Sending some money back to Mexico so that his kids ain't

Sleeping on the floor

City livin' lalalalala

City livin' lalalalala

City livin' lalalalala

City livin' lalalalala

What you gonna do when the sun don't shine on you

What you gonna do when the sun don't shine on you

You just keep on shining through

Just keep on shining through

Keep on shining through

Just keep on shining through
