《New York City Blues(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] New York City Blues (Live) - Neil Sedaka

[00:00:16] Life and death in an alleyway

[00:00:20] Just a heartbeat away from a man

[00:00:27] Who's learned to turn his head away

[00:00:31] From the pain that drains the land

[00:00:38] Harlem's not too far from here

[00:00:42] You can smell the garbage feel the fear

[00:00:49] I hear they're gonna build

[00:00:51] A sky scraper there

[00:00:53] As if we didn't need the extra air

[00:01:04] New York city blues

[00:01:08] In order to win you gotta lose

[00:01:15] Old before your time

[00:01:19] The dirt and the grime

[00:01:22] Get into everything

[00:01:25] And the papers love to say

[00:01:30] It's the meanest town in the USA

[00:01:36] But I think it's OK

[00:01:38] It's the town I've made my home

[00:01:47] On another side of Park Avenue

[00:01:52] Respectable folks don't know

[00:01:59] Hungry eyes take in the view

[00:02:03] Of the world that lays them low

[00:02:09] Too many years on a welfare line

[00:02:14] The old song and dance time after time

[00:02:20] You can only get so pushed around

[00:02:25] Until you wanna tear the damn thing down

[00:02:36] New York city blues

[00:02:39] In order to win you gotta lose

[00:02:46] Old before your time

[00:02:50] The dirt and the grime

[00:02:53] Get into everything

[00:02:56] And the papers love to say

[00:03:01] It's the meanest town in the USA

[00:03:07] But I think it's OK

[00:03:09] It's the town I've made my home

[00:03:35] New York city blues

[00:03:38] In order to win you gotta lose

[00:03:45] Old before your time

[00:03:49] The dirt and the grime

[00:03:52] Get into everything

[00:03:55] And the papers love to say

[00:04:00] It's the meanest town in the USA

[00:04:05] But I think it's OK

[00:04:08] It's the town I've made my home
