| Lyrics: | Oh the city snow makes your brown eyes shine
We've gotta look real hard to find a reason to
cry
New York, New York is a friend of the traveling kind
And I'm coming around from
years of hard times
He's chased me down through the towns and the miles
Once stilled by love
he was bound to roll on by
(chorus)
And if you feel my love won't leave you
And if
your sorrow has been your share
If you are traveling back to Georgia
Won't you take me with
you there
Well I'm long gone darlin', lonesome blue
I been thinking of leavin', I been
thinkin' of you
But that big city singin', man, I like the way that it shines
I was
half a mile from Canada waitin' on a train
Wonderin' and wishin' I could disappear again
I
been killed by love till it takes me to the end of the line
(repeat chorus)
Well,
I've been troubled by a love untrue
He's a fool who'll drown in his fountain of youth
I can
see that now as I'm walkin' and talkin' with you
Well, I been blinded by the sun, washed in
the rain
Scattered in America, I'm scatterin' again
But if you're goin' south darlin' I
guess I'm travelin with you
(repeat chorus twice)
(tag)
Take me with
you...
Oh... won't you take me home |
