I can't live in your big grey city, daddy I can't live in your town I can't find a river or anything pretty Your big grey city just brings me down I need to lie, feelin' the grass Feel it growin' around me Hold on tight to the jungle of trees Let the branches around me I can't live in your big grey city, daddy I can't live in your town I can't find a river or anything pretty Your big grey city just brings me down I need to see the mountains and hills Smell the sweet summer flowers I wanna feel the dew on the leaves After the warm summer showers I can't live in your big grey city, daddy I can't live in your town I can't find a river or anything pretty Your big grey city just brings me down How can you live piled up in here? With steel and skyscrapers only A life without the flowers and trees Makes you live grey-faced and lonely I can't live in your big grey city, daddy I can't live in your town I can't find a river or anything pretty Your big grey city just brings me down Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...
