[00:00.00]New York City - Frances Black
[00:13.65]It's a crazy old day in New York city
[00:16.92]I'm miles from home but I don't need pity
[00:19.76]And I miss my friends my home town
[00:23.05]Sunday morning shutters down
[00:25.81]
[00:26.63]Radio from an open window
[00:29.28]The smell of fried chicken
[00:30.79]And the sound of children
[00:32.39]And skipping ropes and kiss and tell
[00:34.84]
[00:35.41]I've missed my flight but what the hell
[00:38.27]
[00:40.35]I am a stranger here
[00:43.80]
[00:45.62]New York city's not my home
[00:49.98]
[00:54.75]Monday morning rush is on
[00:56.69]
[00:57.48]Everybody's waking at the crack of dawn
[00:59.55]
[01:00.15]With sleepy eyes walking fast
[01:03.41]Rushing for the train that you got to catch
[01:06.07]
[01:06.88]Streets are full of navy cars
[01:09.81]Fogged up windows and you can't get far
[01:12.74]With traffic jams hooting horns
[01:15.84]Cups of coffee from coffee bars
[01:19.18]
[01:20.65]I am an stranger here and
[01:26.96]I could just disappear
[01:30.28]
[01:32.60]New York City's not my home
[01:36.41]
[01:47.38]Tuesday night was freezing cold
[01:49.30]
[01:49.90]It rained for hours so I stayed indoors
[01:53.07]And I counted time one day to go
[01:55.89]Till I packed my bags and I'm going home
[01:58.72]
[01:59.74]JFK was packed that day
[02:02.25]They drove me out in a Chevrolet
[02:05.20]With my suitcase and my spirits high
[02:07.92]
[02:08.48]I'm going home New York goodbye
[02:11.71]
[02:13.23]I am a stranger here and
[02:19.71]I could just disappear
[02:22.77]
[02:25.07]New York City's not my home
[02:28.83]
[02:32.76]Not my home
[02:35.44]
[02:40.62]New York City's not my home
