April Wine - Big City Girls Lyrics
Late night hustle goin' down in the city
A one-way street on the wrong side of town
Young and foolish man don't you know?
All we could see were
Ladies in the night, workin' overtime
Ladies in the night, doin' the hustle
Ladies in the night, flexin' their muscles
Ladies in the night, big city, big city girls
We worked out a deal with some chicks on the corner
Back at the room it was never to be
No-one had money, and the girls got so uptight
Ladies in the night, walkin' a straight line
Ladies in the night, doin' the hustle
Ladies in the night, flexin' their muscles
Ladies in the night, big city, big city girls, so tough
Baby, I know, it's just what I see
Baby, I know, it's not what I need
Big city, big city girls, yeah!
The next thing you know, things got rough, babe
They carved out a warnin' with a switch-blade-knife
The message was clear, if you wanna play, you gotta pay
For ladies in the night, walkin' a straight line
Ladies in the night, workin' overtime
Ladies in the night, doin' the hustle
Ladies in the night, flexin' their muscles
Ladies in the night, big city, big city girls!

April Wine Big City Girls Comments
April Wine was a great band,for some reason after Harder Faster and Nature of the Beast they lost something.
Lost of nice 70s era Les Pauls being played by the band.
I seen April Wine On their nature of the beast tour Great band great sound great performance Love April Wine
Big time hard rock wtf
I've loved these guys since "I Like to Rock" came out. I've been addicted to every one of their albums since, and before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I searched out there stuff. Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!
Going to see them for the first time April of 2020, front row!!
The VFX in this video are great, kind of like The Darkness but without the irony.
Wish i had been there , great gig.
Luv it fucking awesome
Love that song Classic APRIL WINE
When bands really knew how to play fuckyes
Great rock and roll band all their music you know you got a lot of rock bands and icons and April Wine is one of them Bruce Springsteen no just list just goes on and on and on and on and on and I just hope that the world recognizes music and rock was all about because today it sucks you got a couple good songs out there but nothing like and our time and are every time you turn around it was just music being pumped out by so many good bands and kept the feeling going and needs to come back and get rid of all the b******* nowadays everybody just gets on the internet and makes an album back in those days you had to earn the right to have an album because the fans had the last say rock on rock on
Hell yeah!
Yet another example of how much Myles and the boys totally kickass! I've seen April Wine 27 times and they have never let me down. This is one of the few bands I can listen to where you just put the album on and let the entire things play. I play in a cover band and we always cover a couple of tunes from them wherever we play. From the first time I heard April Wine on Harder... Faster...in my friends car I have been jamming them loudly. They did a simulcast show of the Nature of the Beast where they broadcast live on both T.V. and radio and I have listened to it for 30 some years and I've never tired of it. I'm babbling now so I have to split but April Wine rocks like a fine wine and gets better for me as time passes. Thanks ....peace/out
We listen to these guys in 79 and really liked them then. So we really like them now!!
*This is my favorite April Wine song! Thank You for this killer live version! ♥*
I love April Wine!! Underrated their shows were a big party for me and my friends!! Nature of the beast album is my favorite!! I played it over and over!! I must put it in my car today, now!!
fuckin kick fuckin ass !!!
April Wine is one of the best Canuck bands
there is not one band that tours,thats young and plays this kind of music.Where the fuck is the next gen players that take over for this kind of rock-n-roll.Can someone just stop the world,I want to get off right here.
Mike...With ya Buddy! I'll have to stop and get some papers and a bottle of Jack first, but I'm there! LOL
Great rock and roll. Jerry Mercer is a seriously under rated drummer and the entire band gets too little recognition as a great rock band.
Total agreement from me !
They write such great songs, well Myles. The whole band are such amazing musicians. Criminally underrated band in anywhere other than Canada. USA should have given these guys more of a shot. I mean alot of rocker fans in USA know all about April Wine's music and actually gave it a shot
@Dylan MacDonald I still don't quite understand why April Wine didn't make it on the world stage like Rush. Same thing for Triumph. I still listen to them 30 years later on a regular basis. Grew up with it and love it.
A lot of talent...songwriting, awesome drummer, 3 guitars, everyone could basically write, sing, and play guitar(or drums) at any time...when Brian Greenway came on board they really kicked some ass...then came "harder faster" and "nature of the beast"....they had a lot of member changes outside of myles, he was there almost from the beginning and the genius behind the writing mostly as far as I understand but something magical happened when Jesse and Brian came into the mix...not sure what Brian did writing wise but he was an unreal guitarist and vocalist...as you can clearly see when you watch the video for "before the dawn" where he's lead vocals and guitar...for there greatest song ever...imo.
Jerry retired really close to my home town near Kingston!
A song about a night in Edmonton.
What group of young dudes didn't try to check out some hookers when in the big city? We did. and we didn't have money! Just like Myles said!
April Wine really had that classic, warm rock sound combined with melody , excellent musicianship and great live performance nailed when they were at their best !
Nature of the Beast was the first album that I purchased on my own. Great, great song and album.
Still have my album!
Nature Of The Beast!
this is a great version of this
My fave April wine tune, kickin it live!!!
THIS is rock and roll...the epitome of classic rock....
