New York Times - Yusuf / Cat Stevens

New york poor new york
Huuuhu
New york poor new york
Huuhu
Cars choking your child to death
But you don't wanna see
'Cause you only think about yourself
How blind can you be
New york poor new york
Sniper on the rooftop new york
New york poor new york
Not fit for a dog in new york
Everybody bites on the big apple
Leave the hungry in tears
But no one gives a damn no one really cares
How they feel they're just paper people not real
You need a gun to walk into new york
Now you're broke
And you're out on a ledge
Who can help you this time
Now you're down to your very last cent
Still you're asking me who was your friend
I was your friend
New york poor new york
Who turned the lights out in new york
New york poor new york
Just another blackout in new york
Girl dead on the 26th floor
But no one knew her name
Found her body behind the door
Too young for the game
Ooooo
New york poor new york
Devils in the subway new york
New york poor new york
New york poor new york
Talkin talkin talkin talkin talkin
Talkin talkin talkin talkin talkin
Ooooo oooo oooo oooo
Watch out
Harlem touching midtown new york
New york poor new york
Talkin 'bout new york new york
Moneys getting tighter new york
