Oh!
Looning around,
Walking new ground,
In the city.
Looning around,
Walking new ground,
I'm always found,
With you.
So much fun in the city,
Everybody is happy,
There is a smile on every face,
Take a ride on the subway,
Holding hands, it's a new day,
That is the city way of life.
Oh! I am free,
City life is meant for me,
Yes, we are free,
Thats the way it is for you, and me.
We'll take a stroll,
Where the streets are paved with gold,
We're having fun,
There is something here for everyone.
Oh!
Were looning round,
We're wandering around,
Walking new ground,
Exploring new territory,
In the city.
Looning around,
Wandering around,
Walking new ground,
Exploring new territory,
Looking around,
With you.
Come with us, have a good time,
Sing and dance in the sunshine,
This is the only place to be.
Oh!
Looning around,
Walking new ground,
In the city.
Looning around,
Walking new ground,
I'm always found,
With you.
Oh!
Looning around,
Walking new ground,
In the city.
Looning around,
Walking new ground,
I'm always found,
With you.
In the city!
