Frankie Laine City Boy lyrics

[SPOKEN:] hey there City Boy, feel like travellin'?
where you headin'?
I'm headin' West, that's where I'm headin'.

Stage goin' West, hey City Boy. all aboard.
Shake your Pa's hand goodbye,
Tell your Ma not to cry,
you're safe in the hands of the Lord.

stage goin' West, hey City Boy, look out there.
Fill your eyes up with space,
It's all over the place,
The sky stretches out everywhere.

Though your Ma would say it's wrong.
Find a lonesome little missy.
Western nights are cold and long.
Find a gal that's warm and kissy.

[SPOKEN:] Yeah, come on horse, get it goin'.

Stage going West, hey City Boy,
There you go.

Keep your eye on your star,
And you're bound to go far.
As far as your dreams can go.

Westerners are mean and rough,
Better grit your teeth for practice.
Better get yourself some tough.
You can't eat a bowl of cactus.

[SPOKEN:] Yeah! C'mon horse move!

Stage goin' West, hey City Boy,
Here you go.
Keep your eye on your star,
And you're bound to go far.
As far your dreams can go!
In the land of West ward home!

[SPOKEN:] How'd you like it there City Boy?
