Babe, it seems like so long
Since you heard your favorite song playing downtown, playing downtown
And, oh, it seems like awhile
Since the countryâs been in style, so now Iâm downtown, now Iâm downtown.
I never really understood why Iâm here in the city
Youâre in them fields, walking around
Iâve been seeing too much trouble here and not enough you.
Iâve been standing here for days
Looking for some kinda change, but Iâve had no luck to speak of
Take a trip out of the heart
Where the trains and troubles start, if youâre downtown, if youâre downtown
I never really understood why Iâm here in the city
Youâre in them fields, walking around
Iâve been seeing too much trouble here and not enough of you
Iâve been seeing too much trouble here and not enough of you
Babe, it seems like so long (Babe, it seems like so long) x4
So long, so long
