New York City Life

New York City Life Once upon a time you dressed just right threw the bums a dime and went out to pay your taxes Sold your car got on the Greyhound line Went up north to find a place to where your back in All along the way you thought about where you would be Nobody telling you where when how why or what that you could see Cause it's that New York New York City Life Jack and Jill went up the hill way past 42nd street and Broadway Looking for a place to stay looking for a place where the streets have numbers not names Lived the night life hard got a Master's degree in public relations Trying to live the fast life but they ran out of all of their precious time Yes we're on the road we just keep on hanging on yes were on the road we just keep on hanging on Yes it's that New York New York City Life Yes it's that New York New York City Life Then one night like a light we got into the right situation Starring down the subway lines up and down tracks and tribulations Yes were on the road we just keep on hanging on Yes were on the road we just keep on hanging on Well it's that New York New York City Life Well it's that New York New York City Life It's that New York New York City Life
