| When I graduated college
|
| I moved into the east village
|
| I got a job at a cool office
|
| I got Billy Joel’s Greatest Hits
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| I found a couple bars to lay my head
|
| And I drove to Queens and I bought a bed
|
| I made a whole bunch of New York friends
|
| And I wore all black cause everyone else did
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| And now I’m a New Yorker
|
| At an art gallery downtown
|
| I’m a New Yorker
|
| Get the hell outta my way now
|
| Yankees, Rangers, and Knicks
|
| Theater, Pizza, Velvet Underground
|
| I’m a New Yorker
|
| Get the hell outta my way now and go die
|
| Now I’m used to living hand to mouth
|
| I go to Rockaway when it’s really hot out
|
| I hate Williamsburg North, East and South
|
| I know all the lunch spots in Midtown
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| I work so hard that my hair’s been gettin' thin
|
| I ain’t got no time to hit the gym
|
| I picked up a little bit of Spanish
|
| I’m a pretty smart guy, not for nothing
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| Huh-huh-huh
|
| And now I’m a New Yorker
|
| At an art gallery downtown
|
| I’m a New Yorker
|
| Get the hell outta my way now |
| Yankees, Rangers, and Knicks
|
| Theater, Pizza, Velvet Underground
|
| I’m a New Yorker
|
| Get the hell outta my way now and go die
|
| Go die
|
| Go die
|
| Go die
|
| Go die |
