Big City Life

[rosie]

I read the lyrics posted on this site, but what I hear differentiates immensely.

 

I hear: Carolina was a gambler

Lyrics say: Can't rely on you as a gambler

 

I hear: So she came in to the city

Lyrics say: Close again in the true city

 

An so on and so forth (basically every other line).

 

Am I just an insane asshole with poor hearing?

 

What does everyone else hear?

[Broken]

Mhm, I corrected the site already.

 

WE're so the shit ;)

Anyone think of e-mailing MG formally about the lyrics, might be worth a shot... he'd know u were a big fan, let's face it... anyways... 1 nf$ for the person who's successfull...

[Crusader]

Well he hasn't even released it yet...

[Maverick]

no matter... heck I'll do it... if i succeed.... I'm looking for big reward in the form of possible nf$ (or atleast a thank you?) or nothing..... yes, im pathetic.

Caught your eye,

You are my streetlight.

Throw off your blues and use,

Your red and whites.

 

And waves to caution your,

Days and nights.

Been wanderin', been wanderin',

Been wanderin'.

 

Carolina was a gambler,

So she came into the city.

And there she died when she was 21.

This big city life is fun.

 

Caught your eye,

On my bed tonight.

Throw off your blues and use your,

Red and whites.

 

Amber waves to caution,

Your days and nights.

Been wanderin', been wanderin',

Been wanderin'.

 

Carolina was a gambler,

So she came into the city.

And there she died when she was 21.

This big city life is fun.

This big city life is fun.

 

Carolina was a gambler,

So she came into the city.

And there she died when she was 21.

This big city life is fun.

This big city life is fun.

This big city life.

Merging this thread.

 

Jeeze. There's like four fucking threads on BCL lol.

I thought it was hilarious. ;)

[Crusader]

Let's all try to keep them in one thread ;)

[zenkey]

Doing my part to add to the confusion.

Let's all try to keep them in one thread ;)

Sorry, the search was being an asshole, and I thought that this didn't really pertain to the other thread (Big City Life/Flashdance II).

[Maverick]

Is it "amber waves" or "and your waves" or do they change in the second verse... you sure about that Zenkey?

Well I think that's the version of it that makes the most sense when compared with the others that I've read.

Yah, I think Zenkey did a good job ($NF worthy) although I think there are small mistakes of course... but that's unavoidable (p.s. stop posting cause I'm gonna fill the page with my name lol... i didn't think it was possible but, meh.)
