i met a girl who fell in love with dc
when she arrived it made her whole heart skip a beat.
she felt a something something bout this place
and when she felt it then she knew she had to stay

went to new york but didn't see nothin new
makes me feel like i need to buy a pair of shoes
like i should roll my eyes at everyone i meet
like im not cool enuff but least i got fly feet so

i'm not gonna move to new york
im not gonna go to the bay
maybe go down south someday
maybe neworleans maybe atlanta
but she's the best girl i ever met
im not ready to leave just yet
i'm not gonna move to new york
im not gonna move to new york


i look around and see a city full of fools
rich young professionals so lifeless and uncool
and politicians drop a dime to make the crime drop

to sell the city out to stadiums and wine shops


it's like a girl you thought you'd left behind
no matter what can't get her out of your mind
yea she's not perfect you see it everyday
but still you miss her and you love her just the same so

i'm not gonna move to new york
im not gonna go to the bay
maybe go down south someday
maybe neworleans maybe atlanta
but she's the best girl i ever met
im not ready to leave just yet
i'm not gonna move to new york
im not gonna move to new york

my HU My mambo
my rock creek park and gogo
not brooklyn but brookland

but my city my city
sometimes she's just so pretty
sometimes i look around and say
hey baby girl you get me



ate a pupusa for the first time in my life
i met the only girl i'd ever call my wife


my city my city
sometimes she's just so pretty
sometimes i look around and say
hey baby girl you get me
i feel a something something bout this place
and when i feel it im just glad i got to stay here
