Life In The City - The Lumineers

Woo, woo

Woo, woo

And if the city's skyscrapers rise over this island

Would you be glad to see Manhattan for once?

I knew the dream, it died, JMZ line, Myrtle, and Broadway

But I'd be glad to see Manhattan for once

Woah-woah, living life in the city

Woah-woah, it will never be pretty, oh, oh

Woah-woah, we can plan if we make it

Woah-woah, we won't let 'em

They won't take it from me, no, oh, oh, woah (2, 3, 4)

Woo, woo

Woo, woo

And if you leave, don't leave me all alone

'Cause I'll be scared, I'll be naked, I'll get cold

And I miss my dad and Cleopatra sitting on a phone

So take me back off these streets and we'll never be apart

Together from the start

Never, never falling back alone

Living life in the city

Oh-oh, it will never be pretty, oh, oh

Oh-oh, we can plan if we make it

Woah-woah, we won't let 'em

They won't take it from me, no, oh, oh, woah

And if the sun don't shine on me today

And if the subways flood and bridges break

Will you just lay down and dig your grave?

Or will you rail against your dying day?

Da-da-da-da, da, da, da-ah-da

Da-da-da-da-ah, da, da, da

Da-da-da-da, da, da, da-ah-da

Da-da-da-da-ah, da, da, da
