I Live in a City lyrics

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

Made by human hands

Black hands, white hands, yellow and brown

All together built this town

Black hands, white hands, yellow and brown

All together makes the wheels go 'round

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

Made by human hands

Brown hands, yellow hands, white and black

Mined the coal and built the stack

Brown hands, yellow hands, white and black

Built the engine and laid the track

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

Made by human hands

Black hands, brown hands, yellow and white

Built the buildings tall and bright

Black hands, brown hands, yellow and white

Filled them all with shining light

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

Made by human hands

Black hands, white hands, brown and tan

Milled the flour and clean the pan

Black hands, white hands, brown and tan

The working woman and the working man

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

I live in a city, yes I do

Made by human hands
