Back To The City
The Guess Who

(Cummings/Winter)


Beware of lies

They'll always take you by surprise

Bringin' pieces of pain

You'll maybe never sleep again


Me and Sailor workin' on a secret relation

Down in the soda sunlight

Picked up on a jug and my calendar sweetheart

And we were rockin' lightly

We really got to rockin' lightly

Deep, deep down that's where I belong

Sweet street light never done me no wrong

I'm goin' back, back, back to the city


So beware of man

He'll never tell you where you stand

Bringin' pieces of pain

You'll maybe never sleep again


Tinker, tailor, sailor, mailer

Bows and buttons

Thank you all for reason

Meet me in the alley where the road gets dark

And we'll be rockin' lightly

Deep, deep down that's where I belong

Sweet street light never done me no wrong

I'm goin' back, back, back to the city
