[length: 05:16]
[00:20.28]Well, I shuffled through the city on the 4th of July
[00:23.35]I had a firecracker waiting to blow
[00:26.14]Breaking like a robber who was makin’ his way
[00:28.29]To the cities of Mexico
[00:31.24]Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
[00:33.51]I had a tar-hut on the corner of 10th
[00:36.40]Had myself a lover who was finer than gold
[00:38.75]But I’ve been broken up and busted up since
[00:41.42]Your beloved won’t play any games with you
[00:46.72]Any more like they did before
[00:52.24]The world won’t wait, so I better shake
[00:57.08]That thing right out the door
[01:00.34]Hell, I still love you, New York
[01:04.23]
[01:22.78]Well, I found myself a picture that would fit in the folds
[01:25.24]Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
[01:27.44]Still amazed I didn’t lose it on the roof of the place
[01:30.19]When I was drunk and I was thinking of you
[01:32.69]And every day, the children, they were singing their tune
[01:34.85]Is out on the streets, and you could hear from inside
[01:37.34]I used to take the subway up to Houston and 3rd
[01:39.91]I would wait for you, and I’d try to hide
[01:42.53]Your beloved won’t play any games with me
[01:47.36]Any more like they did before
[01:52.65]The world won’t wait, so I better shake
[01:57.35]That thing right out the door
[02:00.50]Hell, I still love you, New York
[02:04.93]
[02:42.76]I remember Christmas in the blistering cold
[02:45.00]In a church on the upper west side
[02:47.69]Babe, I stood there singing, I was holding your arm
[02:49.76]You were holding my trust like a child
[02:52.28]Well, I found a lot of trouble out on Avenue B
[02:54.77]But I tried to keep the overhead low
[02:57.52]Farewell to the city and the love of my life
[02:59.72]Some left before we had to go
[03:02.27]Your beloved won’t play any games with you
[03:07.16]Anymore, if you don’t want ’em to
[03:12.54]So we better shake that old thing right out the door
[03:17.16]I’ll always be thinkin’ of you
[03:20.61]I’ll always love you though, New York
[03:25.36]I’ll always love you though, New York
[03:30.29]I’ll always love you though, New York
[03:36.77]New York, New York
