(Verse 1) lights flashing on the asphalt streetShe walks in boots with those city feetShe don't know nothing about the country clayBut she’s showing me a brand new wayYeah, she’s showing me a brand new way(Verse 2)Took my hand, led me down the avenueShowed me things that I never knewHow to order coffee that I can't pronounceHow to make every single dollar bounceYeah, making every dollar bounce(Chorus)Oh, those city girls, they got the styleMake a country boy walk a country mileThey teach you how to move, teach you how to grooveSmooth edges off the things you doYeah, they smooth it out for you (Verse 3) I used to check the weather by the morning sunShe checks her little screen before the day's begunTaught me how to catch a late-night trainHow to find some cover in a sudden rainJust standing in a sudden rain (Chorus) Oh, those city girls, they got the styleMake a country boy walk a country mileThey teach you how to move, teach you how to grooveSmooth edges off the things you doYeah, they smooth it out for you(Guitar Solo - Short, understated, slightly distorted but very clean, lots of space between the notes, staying right in the pocket) (Verse 4) She don't cook on iron, she orders on the lineBut she taught me how to pick a proper wineTaught me how to listen to the midnight soundOf eight million people spinning round and roundJust spinning round and round (Bridge) It’s a different kind of rhythm, a different kind of paceBut she puts a little smile on my rugged faceYou think you know it all till you change your viewThen a city girl makes a man out of you (Verse 5) Now the traffic hums like a crickets' choirWe're sitting high above the telephone wireI brought my guitar, she brought her worldMan, you learn a lot from a city girlYeah, you learn a lot from a city girl(Chorus)Oh, those city girls, they got the styleMake a country boy walk a country mileThey teach you how to move, teach you how to grooveSmooth edges off the things you doYeah, they smooth it out for you(Outro)Mm-hmm, smooth it right out...That's what they do.New York, LA, Chicago too...They teach a man a thing or two.(Guitar fades out with a lazy, ticking rhythm shuffle and a final, quiet chord)
