NY Man

Oh NY man
Better than the other man
Oh, NY man
You’re the only thing I understand
Since I left the neighborhood
My spirits gone and I’m not feeling so good
And everything you said would happen all came true
They do things really different here
They don’t do like you do
Oh NY man
I hear the subway see us walking hand in hand
On autumn afternoons
Smoking on fire escapes through summer moons
Since I left the neighborhood
My song is sad and I’m not feeling so good
I called you from the airport just to say hello
I wanted you to stop me
Not to let me go
I liked the me that I was when I was with you
Oh NY man
I left rich but I’m back cap-in-hand
Oh, what a fall its true I’ve made a mess of it all
Since I left the neighborhood
My spirits gone and I’m not feeling so good
