New York City (You're A Woman)
New York City, you're a woman
Cold-hearted bitch ought to be your name
Oh, you ain't never loved nobody
Yet I'm drawn to you like a moth to flame
Oh, I have suckled you in my sorrow
And I have sinned with you in my shame
But you ain't never even seen me
New York City, I'm tryin' to beat your game
Oh, and I rise up, Lord and I fall down
It's all in the merit of my ways, don't you dare try and stop me now
I am settled right here in your haze
And I am stuck here now in the final phase
Now don't you send me to the country
'Cause I ain't ready to concede, I will tell you when I'm ready
And I will call to you from down on my knees
Oh, I might be standing but I'll be down on my knees
New York City, you're a woman
Cold-hearted bitch ought to be your name
Oh, you ain't never loved nobody
Still I'm drawn to you like a moth to flame
And I guess that it's silly to think you'll ever change
New York City, you're everything my heart and soul inside
New York City, oh, I'm stuck here, stuck inside of
New York City, I been with ya up and I been with ya down
New York City, I can't get myself outa this town
New York City, I feel it inside me every day of my life
New York City, I can't break loose, it's all over me
New York City, you're a part of my life in every which way
New York City, everything I ever meant, everything I say
New York City, I can't break loose
