Ian Hunter - Central Park N West текст песни

(ian hunter)

The gulf and western garbage

Just aint the prettiest smell

When youre sleeping on the 4th floor up

Its like a living hell

New yorks finest rounding up the bums

The firemen get no rest,

And ambulances signal death, on central park n west.

Now there aint no sheets upon my bed,

Just a mattress and some wine.

The rain is pouring through the night

And Im glad my life is mine.

When frank carillo plays guitar

Trying to get it off his chest.

He gets the words he needs tonight

On central park n west.

And I think, I think, I think, I think, I think its the best,

When Im locked in the middle of new york city on central park n west

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know its a mess,

But youve got to be crazy to live in the city, and new york citys the best.

And we all want just someone just like me

In the city we call home.

She leaves me sometimes when I write,

cause I write better on my own.

Bag ladies take my dollars)

Put my conscience to the test.

But waitresses give me coffee free

On central park n west.

So sing soul woman, sing the songs)

Its time to sing them now.

Im getting more than high from hearin em

Dont sing them quiet, sing them loud.

For you sang with the best of them

But now youre just a guest.

I tell you well get a hotel room

On central park n west.

cause I think, I think, I think, I think, I think its the best,

When Im locked in the middle of new york city on central park n west

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know its a mess,

But youve got to be crazy to live in the city, and new york citys the best.

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, oh yeah.

I think, I think, I think, I think, I think its the best,

When Im locked in the middle of new york city on central park n west.

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know its a mess,

But youve got to be crazy to live in the city, and new york citys the best.
