I'll be happy burning in the streets
I'll be happy moving when I wish to
I'll be happy saying how I please
But I know I was never going to hear
I know I was never going to cut my brother
I know I'll never going to make no deals
I'll be happy staying with you baby

But I'm a cities own son I'm a man of means, yes indeed
And I know I would never going to hear
I know I was never going to wear no collar
I know I'm never going to make no deal
I'm flying on the rooftops

I know I'll never going to make no deals
I'll be happy staying with you baby
I'll be happy swimming for free
You got ya cars at your curb, you got your horses in the country
But I'm a cities own son I'm a man of means, yes indeed
