I'm in the corner
You're in your usual place
The lights of the city
Reflecting on and off your face
No stereo on, no TV
No murmur of a broken heart
You never tell me you miss me
You're too proud to play that part
Big city girls have a way of being all right
I wonder could you ask me
Just once where I've been
You take it for granted
I'll always be back again
If there was another woman
Would you even want to know
You never tell me you love me
You're too scared to let it show
Big city girls have a way of being all right
Big city girls have a way to get through the night
Big city girls never cry when they're left alone
Big city girls are the rule and the city's their own
And you're a big city girl
You're a big city girl
No tears from a big city girl
