City Woman Lyrics

You've got IPA and cigarettes
Lingering on your breath
And me, I like an overpriced iced coffee
You've got Wrangler jeans and riding boots
And I prefer Nike shoes
We're opposites but you insist you want me

You dream of suburbs
I dream of skylines
You've got your backyard
And I've got my high rise

I wanna believe that I'm the great love
Of your life, wanna believe you'll kiss me
Under downtown lights, but I know you cowboy
You were always meant to ride
So I wanna make this work, I mean, who wouldn't?
But a country man can't love a city woman
A city woman

And I love the way you look at life
The way you call your dad each night
You're perfect for a million different people
And you played me songs your momma liked
And now Glen Campbell makes me cry
Well, baby, in a haystack you're the needle, mm

But you dream of suburbs
I dream of skylines
And I wouldn't change a boy
Who's someone's dream guy

I wanna believe that I'm the great love
Of your life, wanna believe you'll kiss me
Under downtown lights, but I know you cowboy
You were always meant to ride
So I wanna make this work, I mean, who wouldn't?
But a country man can't love a city woman
A city woman

So go on wearing riding boots
And I'll keep wearing Nike shoes
I love you but I'm never leaving Brooklyn
'Cause I'm a city woman
