The High Life

from Towne & Country by The Origin

/

lyrics

You head down to Red Hook
You flex your muscles by the bay
You see a show at the Nitehawk
Then back through Prospect on the train

You walk yourself lean
You dance yourself clean
Suddenly a sunset
It’s the best you’ve ever seen

You make a stop at Canal St
You get your ramen cup to go
And then its straight up to K Town
Where you'll be singing karaoke

Then you're up on the High Line
You're lookin' Jersey in the eye
That Hudson skyline
It’s where you live your life up high

You walk the whole line
And go for a pint
All your little troubles are
The last thing on your mind

And when you fly home for Christmas
My god it’s great to get away
But in the night when it’s quiet
You feel that city in your legs

You sleep yourself sound
In your beloved hometown
Dreaming of the next time
That the wheels hit the ground

It's where you live the high life
Of sounds and sights
It's where you live the high life
Day and night
