NYC Song Songtext

von John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band

Say, hey little girl take me by the hand
Walk with me down this boardwalk one last time again
We see those pretty pier lights, hear those carnival sounds
We're gonna stop right at the top tonight, when the ferris wheel goes 'round
You say that I've been restless, you don't understand
Tomorrow I'll be leavin' on the morning train
Gonna leave this candy apple town behind
To get out while I still can
Goin' to New York city, with this guitar in my hand
Been wishin' on these stars to long, been playin' in these bars to long
Been hold up in your arms to long, been a prisoner of my heart to long
Goin' to New York city, gonna find out where I stand
And I'll be walking down the broadway, with this guitar in my hand

Instrumental Break

Well I sing for these tourists, 'bout a dream life on the water
When the dream itgets broken, this life gets harder and harder
Gotta leave this candy apple town behind
To get out while I still can
Goin' to New York city, with this guitar in my hand
Been wishin' on these stars to long, been playin' in these bars to long
Been hold up in your arms to long, been a prisoner of my heart to long
Goin' to New York city, gonna find out where I stand
And I'll be walking down the broadway, with this guitar in my hand
