Rock City Lyrics
Kings of Leon
I was running through the desert
I was looking for drugs,
And I was searching for a woman
Who was willing to love,
So I could take her like a woman.
Yeah take her like a woman.
I was looking for a bad girl
Looking for a bad boy,
Someone who could take all the night away.
Oh baby I could shake it like a woman.
Yeah shake it like a woman.
I got the eyes on me of a jealous man,
And if you're looking to run
Well then you've already ran.
I break down like a woman.
I break down like a woman.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
I've been several miles and plenty more,
And I found myself face-first on the floor,
Searching for something.
But never finding something.
And I don't know where I belong,
I'm just trying to get myself back home
And get a little work,
Yeah find my little woman.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
Oh my my, oh my my, oh my my.
I need to find something.
I'm searching for something.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
I was looking for drugs,
And I was searching for a woman
Who was willing to love,
So I could take her like a woman.
Yeah take her like a woman.
I was looking for a bad girl
Looking for a bad boy,
Someone who could take all the night away.
Oh baby I could shake it like a woman.
Yeah shake it like a woman.
I got the eyes on me of a jealous man,
And if you're looking to run
Well then you've already ran.
I break down like a woman.
I break down like a woman.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
I've been several miles and plenty more,
And I found myself face-first on the floor,
Searching for something.
But never finding something.
And I don't know where I belong,
I'm just trying to get myself back home
And get a little work,
Yeah find my little woman.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
Oh my my, oh my my, oh my my.
I need to find something.
I'm searching for something.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
I go back to Rock City,
That's where she saw me,
Everybody's seen her,
Everyone believes me.
