New York Town

Wow, New York City

I need a cap

Yo - taxi!

Thanks a lot, man, for picking me up

Where are you going, buddy?

Ohhm, bring me up to 125th street, Lexington Avenue, man

Nah, no way, I am sorry, man, I ain't going up there

What do you mean, you sorry, you can't take me up there?

Ah no, get outta my cab, I am not going into Harlem

What do you mean?

You can't leave me in the middle of the street in Manhattan

Just like that

Wow, is this a trick?

Better call me another cab

Yo - taxi!

I hope it's a brother this time

When I want to get down, I go to New York town

There I can party all night

When I walk in the door that's where you've been before

The freaks are there to give me delight

The Ladies there are everywhere

And we party from night time 'till dawn

Then I get up at 10 and do it all again

I could never stop getting it on

People rushing

Uptown, under the ground

The subways, to Manhattan in old New York

(New York town)

People hurry

Why should they have to hurry?

There's always a party in old New York

(New York town)

When I want to get high, up on my jet I'll fly

To the city where you never come down

I walk in Central Park, but never after dark

'Cause you never know who's hanging around

The Puerto Rican girls, their hair is curled

And the sisters are as fine as can be

Even the girls are a trick, they say was half as slick

And it's the only place where you can be free

People rushing

Uptown, under the ground

The subways, to Manhattan in old New York

(New York town)

People hurry

Why should they have to hurry?

There's always a party in old New York

(New York town)

People rushing

Uptown, under the ground

The subways, to Manhattan in old New York

(New York town)

People hurry

Why should they have to hurry?

There's always a party in old New York

(New York town)

(Ohh, uhh)

New York

Wow: New York

New York

New York City, New York

New York

Well, New York

New York

New York

Yeah, New York

New York

New York City, New York

Yeah, yeah
