Hey, hey, honey, what's on your mind
|
Well, you said that sleepin' with a poor band's not your style
|
Ain't that just a little unkind
|
Hey, Marlon Brando, what would you do in a spot like this
|
I don't play as your pawn tonight
|
Doin' the New York Hustle with a hundred dollar miss
|
Summer night in the city
|
New York girls they always make you feel so fine
|
There's music, and I can always hear it playin'
|
New York Nights and there's music in the streets
|
|
A doin' the Eighth Avenue Shuffle on a Friday afternoon
|
With the hum of a thousand engines
|
Singin' that old familiar tune
|
And now yakety yak and don't talk back
|
When a guy lay me down with my Pontiac
|
Tell those high school queens of mine that the
|
Prom was for your monkey shine
|
|
Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City
|
New York girls are oh, so pretty
|
Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City
|
New York girls make you feel so fine
|
Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City
|
New York girls are oh, so pretty
|
Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City
|
Music in the streets
|
|
Another night, another town
|
I'm out on the road and ther's no one around
|
And it's rainin', yeah, it's rainin'
|
Silence is all around
|
It's cold and lonely, oh darlin', if only I could feel it
|
Oh, can you feel it
|
|
Eighth Avenue Shuffle on a Friday afternoon
|
With the hum of a thousand engines
|
Singin' that old familiar tune
|
Hey, Marlon Brando, do you agree it feels so fine
|
Doin' the New York Hustle
|
These girls are doin' the monkey shine
|
|
Summer night in the city
|
New York girls they always make you feel so fine
|
There's music, and I can always hear it playin'
|
New York Nights and there's music in the streets
|
