Lyrics:

Big city life

Me try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

Here my heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case

Big city life

Try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

My heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case

People in a show

All lined in a row

We just push on by

It's funny

How hard we try

Take a moment to relax

Before you do anything rash

Don't you want to know me?

Be a friend of mine

I'll share some wisdom with you

Don't you ever get lonely

From time to time

Don't let the system get you down

Big city life

Me try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

Here my heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case

Big city life

Try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

My heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case

Soon our work is done

All of us one by one

Still we live our lives

As if all this stuff survives

Don't you want to know me?

Be a friend of mine (a friend of mine)

I'll share some wisdom with you

Don't you ever get lonely

From time to time

Don't let the system get you down

Big city life

The linguist across the seas and the oceans

A permanent itinerant is what I've chosen

I find myself in big city prison

Arisen from the vision of man kind

Designed to keep me discreetly neatly in the corner

You'll find me with the flora and the fauna and the hardship

Back a yard is where my heart is still

I find it hard to depart this big city life

Me try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

Here my heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case

Big city life

Try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

My heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case

Big city life

Me try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

Here my heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case

Songwriter:

Big city life

Try fi get by

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try

Big city life

My heart have no base

And right now Babylon de pon me case
