New York City Lyrics

New York City lyrics

Took myself outta New York City 

But New York won't leave me alone 

I found everything I needed there 

In a Deli right down the street 

It's always in my blood 

The last place I felt at home 

Chewing up the great Big Apple 

You learn to love the smell of the streets 



THERE'S ROCK 'N' ROLL IN NEW YORK CITY 

AND LOTS OF THINGS TO GET ON DOWN 

LIFE CAN GET HARD IN NEW YORK CITY 

BUT I'LL BE BACK TO ROCK THAT TOWN 

JUST STICK AROUND 



Either I had nails for breakfast 

Or the day just wasn't right 

Face to face with sheer brutality 

Concrete cold reality 

Part of me just couldn't stay 

Part of me just can't break away 

Survivin' New York City 

Is an impressive fact indeed 



THERE'S ROCK 'N' ROLL IN NEW YORK CITY 

AND LOTS OF THINGS TO GET ON DOWN 

LIFE CAN GET HARD IN NEW YORK CITY 

BUT I'LL BE BACK TO ROCK THAT TOWN 

JUST STICK AROUND
