Let Me Live In Your City

By Paul Simon (1973)
On album There Goes Rhymin' Simon (1973)

There Goes Rhymin' Simon
You got the cool water when the fever runs high
You got the look of love light in your eyes
And I was in crazy motion 'til you called me down
You took a little time but you called me down

Oh, let me live in your city, the river so pretty, the air so fine
Rent me a room where I can lay over
Oh, I'm just a traveler eatin' up traveling time
I'm just a traveler eatin' up my traveling time

They got a wall in China, it's a thousand miles long
To keep out the foreigners they built it strong
And I got a wall around me, you can't even see me
It took a little time to get to me

Oh, let me live in your city, the river so pretty, the air so fine
Rent me a room where I can lay over
Oh, I'm just a traveler eatin' up traveling time
I'm just a traveler eatin' up my traveling time

Some people never say the words, 'I love you'
It's not their style to be so bold
Some people never say those words, 'I love you'
But like a child they're longing to be told

Let me live in that city, the river so pretty, the air so fine
Rent me a room where I can lay over
Oh, I'm just a traveler eatin' up traveling time
Oh, I'm just a traveler eatin' up my traveling time
