Swinging City Gal
You never did nothing wrong
But you never did nothing right
You could have done something
But you did nothing at all
No, no
You never would pay me mind
And you know there’s many a time
When you took my loving
And left me with nothing at all no
You’re a city
Just a swinging city gal
I bought you those fancy clothes
Tied you up with ribbons and bows
Spent all of my money
That ain’t funny at all, no
I made you what you are
A superstar
Now you’re something
And I’ve got nothing at all, no
You’re a city
Just a swinging city gal
New York, L.A
Oh, how you love them cities
(New York, L.A.)
(Oh, how you love them cities)
Alright (alright)
Okay (okay)
Go to your swinging city
Gal, that’s where you want to be
Someday you gonna find
Getting down to the bottom line
When you’re hot
You’re hot
And when you’re not
You’re not at all, no
Then the world’s gonna pass you by
Take you off your mighty high train
Boy, you’ve got and leave you nothing at all
You’re a city
Just a swinging city gal
New York, L.A
Oh, how you love them cities
(New York, L.A.)
(Oh, how you love them cities)
Alright (alright)
Okay (Okay)
Go to your swinging city
Gal, that’s where you want to be
You never did nothing wrong
But you never did nothing right, no
You could’ve done something
But you did nothing at all
You never once paid me mind
And you know there’s many a time
When you took my loving
And left me with nothing at all
You’re a city
Just a swinging city gal
Oh
Oh, yeah
