Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song NY Is a Woman , by - Suzanne Vega. Song language: English
NY Is a Woman |
| New York City spread herself before you |
| With her bangles and her spangles and her stars |
| You were impressed with the city so undressed |
| You had to go out cruising all the bars |
| Your business trip extended through the weekend |
| Suburban boy here for your first time |
| From the 27th floor above the midtown roar |
| You were dazzled by her beauty and her crime |
| And she’s every girl you’ve seen in every movie |
| Every dame you’ve ever known on late night TV |
| In her steam and steel is the passion you feel |
| Endlessly |
| New York is a woman she’ll make you cry |
| And to her you’re just another guy |
| Look down and see her ruined places |
| Smoke and ash still rising to the sky |
| She’s happy that you’re here but when you disappear |
| She won’t know that you’re gone to say goodbye |
| And she’s every girl you’ve seen in every movie |
| Every dame you’ve ever known on late night tv In her steam and steel is the passion you feel |
| Desperately |
| New York is a woman she’ll make you cry |
| And to her you’re just another guy |
