Lyrics

Caught the bus to penn station
My heart was beating with anticipation
But I was bored, on my second day there
That's when I saw her with her long brown hair
Girl you said you were feeling sad
Yeah, you'd lost the best friend that you'd ever had
I should have known, how could I be so blind?
To believe you and all your lies..

New york city girl
Irish eyes and skin of pearl
New york city girl
She took me down and she showed me her world
She was a new york city girl..

She hangs out at st.marks place
Where the punks are phoney and the leather is fake
That place lost it's edge some time ago
But I guess the ghettos just got so much soul
Oh yeah you're so stuck up
Yeah you're so high up
Where no-one can touch you
In your new york cool..
