Big city life
Me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
Here my heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case

People in a show
All lined in a row
We just push on by
It's funny
How hard we try

Don't you want to know me
Be a friend of mine
I'll share some wisdom with you
Don't you ever get lonely
From time to time
Don't let the system get you down

Big city life
Me try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
Here my heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
Big city life
Try fi get by
Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
My heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
Don't you want to know me?
Be a friend of mine
I'll share some wisdom with you

Don't you ever get lonely
From time to time
Don't let the system get you down

Big city life

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
Here my heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
Big city life

Pressure nah ease up no matter how hard me try
Big city life
My heart have no base
And right now Babylon de pon me case
