Magic City Lyrics

[Chorus Intro]
I was looking for love
Was looking for love
In all the wrong places
I was looking for love
I was looking for love
In Magic City

I was looking for love
Was looking for love
In all the wrong places
Oooh woah
Mmmm

[Verse 1]
I never be considered
A trick in my life
Bring a couple bad girls
Then I just might
If they're stripping
I'm tipping
I got a couple of dollars I'm spending
If she got ass
And nice long legs
She can have a piece of my bread
'Cause honestly
I'll do, anything for love
Not tryna fall for anything
[Chorus]
'Cause I was looking for love (Looking for love)
Was looking for love
In Magic City
In the long run
When you do it like that
You're gonna be all alone
Was looking for love
Was looking for love
In all the wrong places

Every dollar
When you're living like that
You're gonna be all alone

[Verse 2]
I don't care
When it comes to love
I've been treated unfair
It seems to escape me
Or maybe I'm to blame
I wasn't ready for love
I was so up and down
In and out
Up and down
Like we're on a ride
Going nowhere fast
Every girl I had
They might've had what it takes
But I'm all alone
[Chorus]
I was looking for love
Was looking for love
In Magic City
In the long run when you do it like that
You're gonna be all alone
I was looking for love
Was looking for love (Looking for love)
All the wrong places
I spent all my money on her
Tonight I'm a be all alone

[Bridge]
See I'm no fool
But I been dealt some really hard cards
But I refuse to losing
It's like a battle
Trying to get to protect my heart
But here's the way I look at it
There's gonna be someone for me
I'm gonna give my all
And now I'm gonna be easy
And stay patient

[Chorus]
I was looking for love
Was looking for love
In Magic City
In the long run
When you do it like that
Your gonna be all alone
All the wrong places
[Outro]
One day I'll settle down
But not anytime soon
I was looking for love
Was looking for love
Looking for
As a matter of fact let me take that back
I don't want love
