[Verse 1]

             
City girls jus

         
t seem to find

           
 out early, ho

              
w to open door

             
s with just a 

smile.
             
A rich old man

         
 and she won't

             
 have to worry

            
, she'll dress

             
 up all in lac

   
e and 
      
go in style.
             
Late at night 

         
a big old hous

             
e gets lonely,

           
 I guess every

 form of refug

e has 
    
its price.
             
And it breaks 

             
her heart to t

          
hink her love 

             
is only given 

            
to a man with 


hands 
             
as cold as ice

     
.
             
So she tells h

            
im she must go

           
 out for the e

         
vening, to com

fort an old fr

iend 
              
who's feelin' 


down.
             
But he knows w

           
here she's goi

           
n' as she's le

             
avin, she is h


eaded for the 
             
cheatin side o

         
f town. 


[Chorus]

            
You can't hide

             
 your lyin eye

            
s,    and your

          
 smile is a th

           
in disguise
             
I thought by n

             
ow you'd reali

            
ze there ain't

             
 no way to hid

On the other s

         
ide of town a 

             
boy is waiting

         
, with fiery e

yes and dreams

 no

She drives on 

            
through the ni

          
ght anticipati

            
ng cause he ma

              
kes her feel t

   
he way

She rushes to 

         
his arms they 

             
fall together,

     
 she whispers 

that it's only

 for 
  
awhile.
             
She swears tha

              
t soon she'll 

         
be comin back 

           
forever she pu

f a strong one

     
 and stares ou

t at the stars

 up in 
    
the sky.
             
Another night,

         
 it's gonna be

             
 a long one, s

            
he draws the s

         
hade and hangs

 her 
            
head to cry.

 
             
She wonders ho

         
w it ever got 

             
this crazy, sh

  
e thinks about

 a boy she kne

w in
