One-eyed man with a scar on his face and a peg leg |
|
Drives his cab fifty miles-per-hour down Broadway |
|
Looks at me with his crooked smile while Gershwin plays |
|
Hits his breaks and points out the freaks on St. Marks Place |
|
It's the rhythm of the rain that falls |
|
It's a cab ride at 5 00 A.M |
|
Manhattan goddess with her Levis and curls |
|
New York City - I'm coming home again |
|
Sit and smile thinking about summer Sundays and the roller skates |
|
Afro wigs and rainbow socks float past like a ballet |
|
Peanut roasters popping up on every corner, can't you taste that taste |
|
Makes me long for an early morning ride on a subway |
|
It's the rhythm of the rain that falls |
|
It's a cab ride at 5 00 A.M |
|
Manhattan goddess with her Levis and curls |
|
New York City - I'm coming home again |
|
You can steal a line or a phrase, the record company will cheer |
|
Sign you up, make you an artist, make you a millionaire |
|
Shake your hand, pat your ass, give you a big white smile |
|
Say that they're your biggest fan, say they love your style |
|
It's the rhythm of the rain that falls |
|
It's a cab ride at 5 00 A.M |
|
Manhattan goddess with her Levis and curls |
|
New York City - I'm coming home again |
|
It's the rhythm of the rain that falls |
|
It's a cab ride at 5 00 A.M |
|
Manhattan goddess with her Levis and curls |
|
New York City - I'm coming home again |
|
New York City I'm coming home again |
|
New York City I'm coming home again |
