Well,I shuffled through the city on the 4th of July |
[00:30.50] |
I had a firecracker waiting to blow |
[00:32.68] |
Breakin'like a rocket who makin'its way |
[00:34.80] |
To the cities of Mexico |
[00:37.24] |
Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A |
[00:39.35] |
I had a tar-hut on the corner of 10th |
[00:41.79] |
Had myself a lover who was finer than gold |
[00:43.73] |
But I've broken up and busted up since |
[00:46.28] |
And love don't play any games with me |
[00:50.53] |
Anymore like she did before |
[00:55.22] |
The world won't wait,so I better shake |
[00:59.65] |
That thing right out there through the door |
[01:01.67] |
Hell,I still love you,New York |
[01:13.33] |
Found myself a picture that would fit in the folds |
[01:15.28] |
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good |
[01:17.58] |
Still amazed I didn't lose it on the roof of the place |
[01:19.96] |
When I was drunk and I was thinking of you |
[01:22.07] |
Every day the children they were singing their tune |
[01:23.70] |
Out on the streets and you could hear from inside |
[01:26.69] |
Used to take the subway up to Houston and 3rd |
[01:28.44] |
I would wait for you and I'd try to hide |
[01:31.24] |
And love won't play any games with you |
[01:35.49] |
Anymore if you don't want it to |
[01:40.24] |
The world won't wait and I watched you shake |
[01:44.86] |
But honey,I don't blame you |
[01:47.54] |
Hell,I still love you,New York |
[01:56.96] |
Hell,I still love you,New York |
[02:02.96] |
New York |
[02:07.69] |
I remember Christmas in the blistering cold |
[02:08.87] |
In a church on the upper west side |
[02:11.75] |
Babe,I stood their singing,I was holding your arm |
[02:14.11] |
You were holding my trust like a child |
[02:16.43] |
Found a lot of trouble out on Avenue B |
[02:18.48] |
But I tried to keep the overhead low |
[02:20.98] |
Farewell to the city and the love of my life |
[02:23.11] |
At least we left before we had to go |
[02:25.79] |
And love won't play any games with you |
[02:30.16] |
Anymore if you want 'em to |
[02:34.46] |
So we better shake this old thing out the door |
[02:39.07] |
I'll always be thinkin'of you |
[02:42.19] |
I'll always love you though New York |
[02:46.95] |
I'll always love you though New York,New York,New York |
