You say the city has changed, well maybe it's true
Y'say everything moves too fast down the avenue
Y'say you just don't get that thrill, tea for two
You say the city has changed, well maybe it's you.
You've been east side, west side, up and down, all around
the town
Stomped through your old stomping grounds, cracked open
your old crown
Y'say the sidewalks are made of concrete 'stead of
mountain dew
You say the city has changed, well maybe it's you.
Small-town boy you always thought you were a big-town man
Maybe your orchestra is just a rag-time band
You say the city looks different, it's somehow lost its
charm
Fire engine fly by with its annoying alarm
Did the angels ever really look this sad and blue?
You say the city has changed, well maybe it's you.
You say the city has changed, well maybe it's you
