[Verse 1]
I'm tired of this dirty old city
Entirely too much work and never enough play
And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks
I think I'll walk off my steady job today
[Chorus]
Turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Montana
Give me all I've got coming to me
And keep your retirement
And your so-called social security
Big City, turn me loose and set me free
[Verse 2]
I've been working every day since I was twenty
I haven't got a lot to show for anything I've done
I know folks who never work and thеy got plenty
I think it's time folks like you and mе had some fun
[Chorus]
Turn me loose, set me free
Somewhere in the middle of Montana
And give me all I've got coming to me
And keep your retirement
And your so-called social security
Big City, turn me loose and set me free
[Outro]
Hey Big City, turn me loose and set me free
