Big City Blues Songtext
von Charlie Robison

Skinny dippin′ in the Perdenales river
A country girl sure could make me shiver
Right now that's just what I could use
To wash away these big city blues

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Hollywood stars beneath my feet
Everywhere I look I see concrete
Well, I could use a little Southern rain
A Blanco County calls my name


Goddamn these big city blues
I got them big city blues
Someone done went and stole my favorite pair of boots
Goddamn these big city blues

Daddy was a no count bull ridin′ son of a bitch
That's what my mama said
She cursed the day they ever met
She's the cutest small town thing that he′d seen in the world ′cept
And daddy loved the big city girls

Goddamn these big city blues
I got them big city blues
Someone done went and stole my favorite pair of boots
Goddamn these big city blues
Goddamn these big city blues


Skinny dippin' in the Perdenales river
A country girl sure could make me shiver
Right now, that′s just what I could use
To wash away these big blues
