Artist/Band: Cat Stevens
Lyrics for Song: New York Times
Lyrics for Album: Back To Earth [1978]



New York poor New York

New York poor New York



cars choking your child to death

but you don't wanna see

cause you only think about yourself

how blind can you be



New York poor New York

sniper on the rooftop New York

New York poor New York

not fit for a dog in New York



everybody bites on the Big Apple

leave the hungry in tears

but no one gives a damn no one really cares

how they feel they're just paper people not real



you need a gun to walk into New York



now you're broke and you're out on a ledge

who can help you this time

now you're down to your very last cent

still you're askin' me who was your friend

i was your friend



New York poor New York

who turned the lights out in New York



New York poor New York

just another blackout in New York



girl dead on the 26th floor

but no one knew her name

found her body behind the door

too young for the game



New York poor New York

devils in the subway New York

New York poor New York

New York poor New York

talkin talkin talkin - watch out

Harlem touching midtown New York

New York poor New York



talkin 'bout New York New York

money's getting tighter New York

they're burning the bridges to New York
