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 |
