Big city blues from head to my shoes 
I feel lonesome in the crowd even when the music is loud 
Big city blues it ain't nothing to do with the rules 
I feel lonesome without you 
Big city blues missing only you 
I've got friends and lovers but they never knew 
Oh big city blues 
Lord I don't know what to do 
I feel lonesome without you 
You must be wondering all the time I was gone 
But I was stuck here in the city I don't belong 
I know my soul was lost and that is my cost 
I have to hold on tight and think of you 
Oh you must be wondering all the time I was gone 
But I was stuck here in the city I don't belong 
I know my soul was lost and that is my cost 
I have to hold on tight and think of you think of you 
I have to hold on tight and think of you think of you 
I have to hold on tight and think of you think of you
