N.Y.C. (with the Supersuckers) |
| He was standing on the highway |
| Somewhere way out in the sticks |
| Guitar across his shoulder |
| Like a 30 ought six |
| He was staring in my headlights |
| When I come around the bend |
| Climbed up on my shotgun side |
| And told me with a grin |
| I’m going to New York City |
| I never really been there |
| Just like the way it sounds |
| I heard the girls are pretty |
| There must be something happening there |
| It’s just too big a town |
| He was cold and wet and hungry |
| But he never did complain |
| Said he’d come a thousand miles |
| Through sleet and snow and rain |
| He had a hundred stories |
| About the places that he’d been |
| He’d hang around a little while |
| And hit the road again |
| See I’ve been to New York City |
| Seems like it was yesterday |
| I was standing like a pilgrim |
| On the Great White Way |
| The girls were really pretty |
| But they wouldn’t talk to me |
| I held out about a week |
