Songtexte City Women - The Grass Roots

You wake up warm from a summer sleep
But those city women get up and turn on the heat
They just don't know when to let a man be
Those city women are gonna be the death of me

Now, you work all day and you sweat real hard
But you never earn enough for them to lay 'em out on your job
So they want you to go out and rob
Those city women are gonna be the death of me

City women gonna be the death of me, yeah
You know they're just not happy till they see you in misery

Now, you buy a gun on a rainy day
You meet a man in an alley and you try to make him pay
But when he tries to run away
Those city women are gonna be the death of me

Now, here I am sittin' in the jail
Warden gonna come for me, three o'clock without fail
All because my woman left town with my bail
Those city women are gonna be the death of me

City women gonna be the death of me, yeah
You know they're just not happy till they see you in misery

They'll be the death of me
