Over the City - Blues Company

United 1−0-9,

New York to California

Deparyure time, just before dawn

We got up late,

Cab was waitin' for her

On the street,

Blowin' its horn

Before I made a scene,

She hurried out the door

Forgot her favourite jeans,

On the bedroom floor

I look into the sky,

Tears in my eyes And my baby fly over the city

Her agent got a deal,

With a guy from Sacramento

He’s waitin' in a limousine

To go downtown, show her around

The local stations and magazines

Promise her the moon, promise her the sun

By the time she’s home,

Illusions will be gone

I look into the sky,

Tears in my eyes And my baby fly over the city

Smitty — Joe’s, for a drink or two

Had a meal, on 7th Avenue

Late at night, when i got back home

Thats when she called,

On the telephone

She tell me not to worry,

It’ll work out fine She

Says we need the money,

But in the meantime

I look into the sky,

Tears in my eyes And my baby fly over the city
