A couple whiskeys later
And you're staring at the sky
Your back's on the pavement and the moon...
The moon is on fire
This is my country song for the city girls
This is my one more for the road
This is the late night walk home after one too many and
This is my one last hello
Somewhere out in America
They're dancing in the sunshine
Somewhere down in Chicago
I'll be soaking up the moonlight
I'm not gonna stop until I can get this one right
This is my country song for the city girls
A couple minutes later and
Your life has passed you by
You stare into the moon and
You're asking yourself why
All the little things that she might say
All that she does in her mixed up way
Another lonesome minute here
In another lonesome day
Somewhere out in America
They're dancing in the sunshine
Somewhere down in Chicago
I'll be soaking up the moonlight
I'm not gonna stop until I can get this one right
This is my country song for the city girls
This is my country song for the city girls
But she ain't coming home
Oh and I'm out here on my own
No, no I can't see it all
This is my country song for the city girls
This is my one more for the road
Somewhere out in America
They're dancing in the sunshine
Somewhere down in Chicago
I'll be soaking up the moonlight
I'm not gonna stop until I can get this one right
This is my country song for the city girls
This is my country song for the city girls
This is my country song
This is my country song for the city girls
