Merle Haggard - Big City

Big City

I'm tired of this dirty old city
Entirely too much work
And never enough play
And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks
Think I'll walk off my steady job today

Turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Montana
And give me all I've got comin' to me
And keep your retirement and your so-called social security
Big city, turn me loose and set me free (yeah)

Been workin' every day since I was 20
Haven't got a thing to show
For anything I've done
There's folks who never work and they've got plenty
Think it is time some guys like me had some fun, so

Turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Montana
And give me all I've got comin' to me
And keep your retirement and your so-called social security
Big city, turn me loose and set me free

Hey, big city, turn me loose and set me free
