New York City Lyrics

[00:08.961]	She came to me shortly after Christmas,
[00:15.31]	Said she hated spoiling New Year's Eve.
[00:20.716]	But the truth doesn't wait to come in season
[00:27.32]	And what we had feared was now believed
[00:32.866]	She said she'd leave come Monday morning,
[00:39.186]	Catch a plane if I'd split the fair.
[00:45.317]	She had friends who lived in New York City.
[00:51.140]	She'd look them up and have the baby there.
[00:57.182]	And now she's alone in New York City,
[01:03.573]	Living like …Lord,I wonder how.
[01:09.299]	An angel in hell in New York City,
[01:15.312]	But I can't think about that now.
[01:25.110]	Honey,will you tell him Bible stories
[01:30.756]	And give him all the love I never could?
[01:36.718]	And never tell him too much about his daddy
[01:42.997]	'Cause there's not too much to say that's good.
[01:48.936]	He'll have to learn it all from his mother:
[01:55.174]	How to count and say his ABC's.
[02:01.156]	But when you teach him prayers to say at bedtime,
[02:07.544]	Leave off "God bless Daddy,"won't you please?
[02:13.330]	And now they're alone in New York City,
[02:19.702]	Living like Lord …I wonder how.
[02:25.141]	Two angels in hell in New York City,
[02:31.598]	But I can't think about that now.
[02:38.101]	I can't think about that now.
