Jan & Dean – Folk City lyrics
Two girls for every boy….
I got a Hohner harmonica and a Vox 12 string.
Folk City here we come.

You know there's lots of protest songs that I wanna sing.

Folk City here we come.

I’m going to sing all the words like Bob Dylan does,
About where it’s at and where it was.

Yeah I’m goin’ Folk City cause I got to unwind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City, got to blow my mind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City cause I got to unwind
Yeah goin’ to Folk City got to blow my mind
Two Girls for every boy….

I am getting bugged with this feeling of being uptight.
Folk City here we come.
I’m gunna find me a chick who does everything right.
Folk City here we come.
So take a trip with me and we will be all alone,
In the jingle jangle morning like a Rolling Stone.

And I’m goin’ Folk City cause I got to unwind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City, got to blow my mind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City cause I got to unwind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City got to blow my mind
Two girls for every boy….

So go away from my window come round to my door
Folk City here we come.
Cause if you wanna be in that’s what it’s for.
Folk City here we come.
To be a little more than friends is all I want to do,
And say “I would be me and, and why when were through?”

And I’m goin’ Folk City cause I got to unwind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City, got to blow my mind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City cause I got to unwind
You know I’m goin’ to Folk City got to blow my mind
Two girls for every boy….
