You Belong to the City
You belong to the city
You belong to the night
Livin in a river of darkness
Beneath the neon lights
Big town life
What do you got for me
Big town life
Where we cannot
Breathe easily
I see coke bwoy ah party with Gold-digger gyals
Anywhere we dance
Haffi get a job cah di prices
Dem high
Anyday me say
Ah no easy life ina capital
Everyday me say
But you were born here
So
You belong to the city
Concrete under your feet
It's in your moves
It's in your blood
You're a girl of the streets
Big town life
What do you got for me
Got for she
Big town life
Where me cannot breathe
You're a girl from the city
That me know
You belong to the city weh you Come from
Girl
And I belong to me country
Makes me stronger
Baby no me cannot
Stand it no longer
Cause ah you mi want
No other
She want dress like a bwoy and Want play bwoy tricks
Want spend her money fi di New stansmith
She got di beauty weh yuh
Eyes cyant yant miss
Ina di bed wha does she
Really practice
Big city gyal
You no good for me
You attract me
But the problems too
You ever chat 'bout what
The others do
Hey
Know seh your parents ever Take care ah you
But when mi saw you seh mi Woudda never know
You say you haffi drunk
Before the show
Anytime you go
I'm praying for you
You' re a girl from the city
That me know
Big city gyal
You no good for me
You ah chat but you
Too selective
Yes your heart is too selective
Never need to be no detective
Mi know you neva care ah me
You ah say mi too negative
Nobody knows
Where you're going
Nobody cares
Where you've been
You belong to the night
Livin in a river of darkness
Beneath the neon lights
Big town life
What do you got for me
Big town life
Where we cannot
Breathe easily
I see coke bwoy ah party with Gold-digger gyals
Anywhere we dance
Haffi get a job cah di prices
Dem high
Anyday me say
Ah no easy life ina capital
Everyday me say
But you were born here
So
You belong to the city
Concrete under your feet
It's in your moves
