“Bright Lights And The Big City”
Cedric McClester

(1st Verse)
Bright lights and the big city
Proved too much for the girl
She was trust in the spotlight
Of a brand new world
She began hanging out
With a much faster crowd
Boozing and drugging
And talking real loud

(Chorus)
Bight lights and the big city
Seemed to turn her around
She saw things she never did
In her small country town

(2nd Verse)
Bright lights and the big city
Made her lose her head
She partied hard enough
To wake up the dead
Dancing in nightclubs
Having casual sex
And wondering out loud
What she should do next

(Bridge)
Bright lights and the big city
Bright lights and the big city
Bright lights and the big city
Bright lights and the big cit

(Chorus)
Bight lights and the big city
Seemed to turn her around
She saw things she never did
In her small country town

(3rd Verse)
Bright lights and the big city
Are what brought her down
Form the circular motion
Of that merry-go-round
And since her crown
Was so abruptly taken
She stares off in space
With a look that is vacant

(Bridge)
Bright lights and the big city
Bright lights and the big city
Bright lights and the big city
Bright lights and the big cit

(Outro)
Bright lights and the big city
Proved too much for the girl
She was trust in the spotlight
Of a brand new world
Dancing in nightclubs
Having casual sex
And wondering out loud
What she should do next

(Chorus)
Bight lights and the big city
Seemed to turn her around
She saw things she never did
In her small country town
