๐ Lyrics
You pack your bags and you move to the city
There's somethin' missing here at home
You fix your hair and you're lookin' real pretty
It's time to get it out on your own
You're always fightin' with your mama and your papa
Your family life is one big pain
When you gonna, gonna move to the city
Ah, to the city where it all began?
You gotta move, you better move
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Time, you better move
You stole your mama's car
And your daddy's plastic credit card
You're sixteen and you can't get a job
You're not goin' very far
You're always ridin' with the teachers and the police
The soldier life is too insane
When you gonna, gonna move to the city
Ah, to the city where it all began?
You gotta move, you better move, oh, yeah
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Ma, ma, ma, move, oh
To the city with the real nitty gritty
Aw, child, ain't it a pity?
Ooh, yeah
You're on the streets and it ain't so pretty
At least you get to do what you please
You do what you gotta do for the money
At times you end up on your knees
You're always buyin' with the local and the junkies
This city life is much too insane
But you, you had to move to the city
Ah, to the city where it all began
You better move, you better move
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Time, you better move
Oh, to the city with the real nitty gritty
Aw, child, ain't it a pity?
Sometimes, you know it gets too shitty
Come on and hit me!
There's somethin' missing here at home
You fix your hair and you're lookin' real pretty
It's time to get it out on your own
You're always fightin' with your mama and your papa
Your family life is one big pain
When you gonna, gonna move to the city
Ah, to the city where it all began?
You gotta move, you better move
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Time, you better move
You stole your mama's car
And your daddy's plastic credit card
You're sixteen and you can't get a job
You're not goin' very far
You're always ridin' with the teachers and the police
The soldier life is too insane
When you gonna, gonna move to the city
Ah, to the city where it all began?
You gotta move, you better move, oh, yeah
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Ma, ma, ma, move, oh
To the city with the real nitty gritty
Aw, child, ain't it a pity?
Ooh, yeah
You're on the streets and it ain't so pretty
At least you get to do what you please
You do what you gotta do for the money
At times you end up on your knees
You're always buyin' with the local and the junkies
This city life is much too insane
But you, you had to move to the city
Ah, to the city where it all began
You better move, you better move
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Time, you better move
Oh, to the city with the real nitty gritty
Aw, child, ain't it a pity?
Sometimes, you know it gets too shitty
Come on and hit me!
