Ahhhhhh 
Ah, ahhhhhh 
Ah, ahhhhhh 
As a child on the farm 
I was warned of the wiles of the city 
Of that demon disguise 
There's the dirt in the skies of the city 

Well they say the proximity warps their minds 
'Til they're shooting one another just pass the time 
And we live it appears 
Both in spite and in fear of the city 

Oooohhh, ooohhhh yeah 
Oooohhh 

I was constantly told 
How our lives were controlled by the city 
How they keep us in debt 
With the trends that they set it's a pity 

Now the beautiful people in the magazines 
Got the normal ones living beyond their means 
And the things that they said 
Made me go in my head to the city 

Oooohhh 
Ahhhhhhh 
Ah, ahhhhhh 
Ah, ahhhhhh 

When I finally came 
There's some things still the same in the city 
You still lie under the thumb 
Of the rich and the young and the pretty 

Well they weren't much different than we might act 
If there was that many others stacked and closely packed 
It's an ancient idea 
But it struck me so clear in the city 

Oooohhh, ooohhhh yeah 
Oooohhh, ooohhhh yeah 
Oooohhh 

Ahhhhhh 
Ah, ahhhhhh 
Ah, ahhhhhh 

"I'd like to do a song that was written about a good friend of mine down in Key West, Florida, where I spend a little bit of time. This particular friend of mine ran a bar in Key West for a long time before we got fed up with all the other alternatives to politicians and elected our favorite bartender mayor. Our mayor's name is Captain Tony Tarascino, has a little place called Captain Tony's Saloon where we wrote a little song called Last Mango in Paris, not to be confused with that movie by a similar title."
