City Lights


Darlin I don't know whats wrong with you
buton up your shirt and lace your shoes
we're goin out on the town

Pick your head up pretty darlin
don't wear a smile when your frownin
just enjoy the city lights

Common darlin lets go singing
down in the middle of the street
we might look like fools
but they'll still move thier feet

Common my baby common my hunny
common my ragtime guy
dont look at me that way
my love for you ain't shy

Pick your head up pretty darlin
don't wear a smile when your frownin
just enjoy the city lights

Darlin whats gotton into you
swayin with my like the old folks do
spin me right around
 
Under the stars my favorite view
my lipstick smudge looks so cute
sittin there on your cheek
 
Darlin I dont even know where to begin
with all the ways I love you
cause they never end
so lets enjoy the city lights
 

Pick your head up pretty darlin
don't wear a smile when your frownin
just enjoy the city lights
