[intro funky bass groove with claps]
Verse 1:
Waking up to the city hum,
The buzz of life, it’s all begun.
Cabs are honking, people rush,
But I’m feeling good, I’m in no rush.
Coffee’s brewing on the street,
Everybody’s dancing to the beat.
From sunrise to the setting sun,
In this city, life’s never done.
[funky guitar strumming kicks in]
Chorus:
City lights, shining bright,
Take a ride through the neon night!
Every corner’s got a story to tell,
In the city, baby, life is swell.
(Oh-oh) We keep movin', never stop,
(Yeah-yeah) On the rooftops, we’ll hop-hop-hop!
City lights, oh what a sight,
Every day’s a brand new fight!
[drum fill into the next verse]
Verse 2:
From the markets to the busy squares,
You’ll find adventure anywhere.
Street performers, flashing lights,
We’re livin’ large in these city heights.
Graffiti paints the alleyways,
Skaters roll by in a blazing haze.
We laugh, we shout, we live it loud,
In the city, we’re feelin' proud.
[funky saxophone riff plays]
Chorus:
City lights, shining bright,
Take a ride through the neon night!
Every corner’s got a story to tell,
In the city, baby, life is swell.
(Oh-oh) We keep movin', never stop,
(Yeah-yeah) On the rooftops, we’ll hop-hop-hop!
City lights, oh what a sight,
Every day’s a brand new fight!
[short bass guitar slap solo]
Bridge:
Late nights, the streets don’t sleep,
Skyscrapers and dreams run deep.
Diners glow with midnight heat,
We keep dancing to the city beat.
[keyboard solo with groovy beats]
Chorus (x2):
City lights, shining bright,
Take a ride through the neon night!
Every corner’s got a story to tell,
In the city, baby, life is swell.
(Oh-oh) We keep movin', never stop,
(Yeah-yeah) On the rooftops, we’ll hop-hop-hop!
City lights, oh what a sight,
Every day’s a brand new fight!
