I say, hey little girl take me by the hand Walk with me down this boardwalk one last time again We see those pretty pear lights, hear those carnival sounds We stop right at the top tonight, the first view goes around You say that I've been restless, you don't understand Tomorrow I'll be leavin' on the morning train Could leave this candy everytime behind To get out while I still can Go to New York city, with this guitar in my hand Wish all these stars to know, the player in these bars to know Hold up in your arms to know, the prisoner of my heart to know Go to New York city, to find out where I stay And I'll be walking down the broadway, with this guitar in my hand I sing for these tourists, by the dream life on the water The dream make it's broken, this life's yet harder and harder Could leave this candy everytime behind To get out while I still can Go to New York city, with this guitar in my hand Wish all these stars to know, the player in these bars to know Hold up in your arms to know, the prisoner of my heart to know Go to New York city, to find out where I stay And I'll be walking down the broadway, with this guitar in my hand
