lirik lagu neil sedaka - new york city blues
life and death in an alley way
just a heartbeat away from a ma-a-an
who’s learned to turn his head away
from the pai-ain that drai-ains the la-and
harlem’s not too far from here
you can smell the garbage, feel the fear
i hear they’re gonna build a skyscr-per there-ere
as if we didn’t need the extra air-air
new york city blue-ues
in order to wi-in you’ve got to lo-o-ose
old before your ti-ime
the dirt and the gri-ime get into everythi-ing
and the papers love to say-ay-ay
it’s the meanest town in the usa
but i think it’s okay
it’s the town i’ve ma-ade my home
on another side of park avenue
respectable folks don’t know-ow-ow
hungry eyes take in the view
of the wor-orld that lay-ays them low-ow
too many years on a welfare line
the old song and da-ance ti-ime after time
you can only get so pushed arou-ound
until you wanna tear the d-mn thing dow-own
tear it dow-own
new york city blue-ues0
in order to wi-in you’ve got to lo-ose
old before your ti-i-ime
the dirt and the gri-ime get into everythi-ing
and the papers love to say-ay-ay
it’s the meanest town in the usa-a
but i think it’s okay
it’s the town i’ve made my ho-o-ome
new york city blue-ues
in order to wi-in you’ve got to lo-ose
old before your ti-i-ime
the dirt and the gri-ime get into everythi-i-ing
and the papers love to say-ay-ay
it’s the meanest town in the usa-a
but i think it’s okay
it’s the town i’ve ma-ade my ho-o-ome
