Hanoi Rocks - New York City lyrics

Took myself outta New York City

But New York won't leave me alone

I found everything I needed there

In a Deli right down the street

It's always in my blood

The last place I felt at home

Chewing up the great Big Apple

You learn to love the smell of the streets

THERE'S ROCK 'N' ROLL IN NEW YORK CITY

AND LOTS OF THINGS TO GET ON DOWN

LIFE CAN GET HARD IN NEW YORK CITY

BUT I'LL BE BACK TO ROCK THAT TOWN

JUST STICK AROUND

Either I had nails for breakfast

Or the day just wasn't right

Face to face with sheer brutality

Concrete cold reality

Part of me just couldn't stay

Part of me just can't break away

Survivin' New York City

Is an impressive fact indeed

THERE'S ROCK 'N' ROLL IN NEW YORK CITY

AND LOTS OF THINGS TO GET ON DOWN

LIFE CAN GET HARD IN NEW YORK CITY

BUT I'LL BE BACK TO ROCK THAT TOWN

JUST STICK AROUND
