Lyrics Ray LaMontagne

Ray LaMontagne

New York City's Killing Me

There's just somethin' about this hotel

Got me wishin' I was dead

Gotta get out of New York City, son

Somewhere I can clear my head

I was just kickin' along the sidewalk

No one looks you in the eye

No one asks you how you're doin'

Don't seem to care if you live or if you die

I just got to get me somewhere

Somewhere that I can feel free

Gotta get out of New York City, boy

New York City's killin' me

It was just outside of Nashville

I met the woman of my dreams

Sure would like to get to know her

Maybe find out what it means

I get so tired of all this concrete

I get so tired of all this noise

Gotta get back up in the country

Have a couple drinks with the good ol' boys

I just got to get me somewhere

Somewhere that I can feel free

Get me out of New York City, son

New York City's killin' me

I just got to get me somewhere

Somewhere that I can feel free

Get me out of New York City, son

New York City's killin' me

Gotta get out of New York City, son

New York City's killin' me
