New York City - Delbert McClinton

Been down in the dumps for a day or two

Thinkin' maybe it was time for me to make a move

Late night skyline, that’s when it hit me Well, I gotta have me some of that New York City

I was leavin' California in a Chevrolet van

Out across the desert into no-man's land

I just love the West, ya know it sure is pretty

But I gotta have me some of that New York City

I been away too long and I got the itch

To do a little time in that east coast niche

Down on Broadway and do a little ditty

Smack dab in the middle of New York City

I been away too long and I got the itch

To do a little time in that east coast niche

Down on Broadway and do a little ditty

Smack dab in the middle of New York City

I was leavin' California on a warm summer night

Ocean on my left and mountains on my right

To leave it all behind sure seems like a pity

But I gotta have me some of that New York City
