|
And now I know |
|
Spanish harlem are not just pretty words to say |
|
I thought I knew |
|
But now I know that rose trees never grow in new york city |
|
Until you've seen this trash can dream come true |
|
You stand at the edge while people run you through |
|
And I thank the lord there's people out there like you |
|
I thank the lord there's people out there like you |
|
While mona lisas and mad hatters |
|
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers |
|
Turn around and say good morning to the night |
|
For unless they see the sky |
|
But they can't and that is why |
|
They know not if it's dark outside or light |
|
This broadway's got |
|
It's got a lot of songs to sing |
|
If I knew the tunes I might join in |
|
I'll go my way alone |
|
Grow my own, my own seeds shall be sown in new york city |
|
Subway's no way for a good man to go down |
|
Rich man can ride and the hobo he can drown |
|
And I thank the lord for the people I have found |
|
I thank the lord for the people I have found |
