Letra da Música New York City Song de Linda Hargrove

I’m sittin’ in this New York City hotel room alone
Wishin’ I was somewhere else or on my way back home
Nashville Tennessee I know that’s where I do belong
‘Cause I don’t know no New York City Song

They know I’m from Dixie when I open up my mouth
And they don’t treat the ladies here the way they do down South
I thought I coulc make it here, but I can’t get along
‘Cause I don’t know no New York City Song

And, Lord, I’d like to tell you just how much I’d like to leave
"Cause in my mind that southbound song keeps tuggin’ on my sleeve
New York City ain’t the place a country girl should be
No New York City ain’t the place for me

Today I walked a New York City avenue downtown
I’ve never seen so many people hurrying around
And when I smile they look as if to say that smilin’s wrong
No I don’t know no New York City Song
No, I don’t know no New York City Song
