New York's My Home Lyrics - Artist : Patti Page
Listen, all you New Yorkers, there's a rumor going 'round
That some of you good people want to leave this town But you better consult with me before you go, yeah 'Cause I've been to all those places and I know (Chicago?) Well Chicago's all right It's got marshall field and soldiers field and it's on a nice lake But it hasn't got the handsomes in the park It hasn't got the skyline after dark (That's why New York's my home, never let me leave it) New York's my home, sweet home (San Francisco?) San Francisco is a lovely place It's got lots of hills and lots of thrills And it's near an ocean of some size But it hasn't got the Bowery or the Bronx Hasn't got the Harlem honkytonks (That's why New York's my home, it's my favorite city) New York's my home, sweet home (Saint Louis?) Lots of people like St. Louis It's got lots of shoes and St. Louis blues And one of our large rivers runs by But, it hasn't got the Opera and the Mets Hasn't got a famous string quartet (That's why New York's my home, not a place to visit) New York's my home, sweet home (Hollywood?) Hollywood's got movie stars and movie czars Cocktail bars, shiny cars And a wonderful climate they say But it hasn't got the handy subway trains You seldom find a taxi when it rains (That's why New York's my home, take your California) New York's my home, sweet home So save your time and trouble Save your railroad fare Save your time and trouble Save your railroad fare 'Cause when you leave New York You don't go anywhere New York's my home A fabulous place to live A wonderful town, wonderful town, wonderful town... |
