A Million Miles To The City

(Tom T. Hall)

Yeah, I remember it now we were kids back then
Living down on the farm
We were told that the city
Could only bring us harm.

How far is the city somebody said
You know that's a great big town
And Barbara said why it's a million miles
And the story got around.

It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city
And some day we all wanna go.

There was a town near by but a town is a town
And a city, well, that's somethin' else
Our daddy had been to a city
But he never was much help.

Why the buildings're taller than oak trees
Ah, but we knew better than that
Ain't nobody could climb that high
The cities were wide and flat.

It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city
And some day we all wanna go.

Well, now time has passed and we have grown
And traveled far and wide
The cities have changed the kids we were
We see it in each other's eyes.

Lord, I'd love to go back to those hills again
To the boy I used to be
Where the leaves in the wind and the whippoorwills were
Part of the land like me.

It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city
And some day we all wanna go.

It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city
And some day we all wanna go...

Mirror lyrics:

And some day we all wanna go...
It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city

And some day we all wanna go.
It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city

Part of the land like me.
Where the leaves in the wind and the whippoorwills were
To the boy I used to be
Lord, I'd love to go back to those hills again

We see it in each other's eyes.
The cities have changed the kids we were
And traveled far and wide
Well, now time has passed and we have grown

And some day we all wanna go.
It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city

The cities were wide and flat.
Ain't nobody could climb that high
Ah, but we knew better than that
Why the buildings're taller than oak trees

But he never was much help.
Our daddy had been to a city
And a city, well, that's somethin' else
There was a town near by but a town is a town

And some day we all wanna go.
It's a million miles to the city
From the hills and the valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city

And the story got around.
And Barbara said why it's a million miles
You know that's a great big town
How far is the city somebody said

Could only bring us harm.
We were told that the city
Living down on the farm
Yeah, I remember it now we were kids back then
