Lyrics:

Whoa, oh, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, whoa, oh

In the hardstone city where the dust gets in your eyes
Pa, he's out drinking and there's children crying
Ma sits by the washing, she don't know what to do
Looks like this hardstone city's gonna get on top of you

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoa-oh-ooh, whoa, whoa, oh
Whoa-oh-ooh, whoa, whoa, oh
Whoa-oh-ooh, whoa, whoa, oh
Whoa-oh-ooh, whoa, whoa, oh

They say in this hardstone city, you gotta carry a gun
Well, I ain't gonna carry no shooter for no one, no, no, no, oh
Ain't gonna get me, no body's gonna get me down, no, no
Ain't gonna get me, no body's gonna get me down

This hardstone city has me feeling low
All I hear is wildcats screetching on the radio
Gonna get my sister, gonna hold her near
Gonna take her right, right out of here

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Who-oh-oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Who-oh-oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Who-oh-oh, whoa, whoa, whoa

I'm sick and tired of waking up in this town, woo!
All I hear is car horns hooting all day long (All day long)
Gonna get me a lady, fall in love with her
And take her out of this crazy world

Crazy, crazy
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
Ahh!
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
Yeah
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
