| New York City’s alright, but I wanna go home |
| Let me tell you, I wanna go home |
| Is it alright if a man need to go home? |
| I don’t believe you understand me, I wanna go home |
| Let me be proud of where I came from when I go home |
| I know he wanna go home |
| I know he wanna go home |
| Hey hey, let me go home |
| Let me go home |
| I remember Memphis Slim said, feelin' lowdown, act like a clown |
| I really don’t know what to do, what to do |
| Feelin' so blue, just thinking of you |
| You didn’t think I could do that, did you, fam? |
| I wonder just where you could be, you could be |
| Feelin' so blue, just messing around with the blues |
| With the blues, with the blues, with the blues, with the blues |
| With the blues |
| Haha, you know, let me remind you that the fellas |
| We say we’re down and out in New York City |
| We’re down and out in New York City… |
| So long, oh, I hate to see you go |
| So long, oh, I hate to see you go |
