Down And Out In New York City - James Brown[00:00:00]
Written by:Barry De Vo[00:00:01]
Hey man like you know[00:00:07]
I was born in New York City on a Monday[00:00:08]
It seems I was out shining shoes by Tuesday noon[00:00:14]
All the fat cats in the bad hats doing me a real big favor[00:00:19]
Got the fat cats in the bad hats laying it on real good[00:00:25]
Here's a dime boy give me a shine boy[00:00:30]
When the cold wind comes it lives at New York City[00:00:43]
And the street's no place to be but there you are[00:00:48]
So you try hard or you die hard[00:00:54]
No one really gives a good damn[00:00:57]
You try hard and you die hard[00:00:59]
No one gives a damn[00:01:02]
Here's a dime boy give me a shine boy[00:01:05]
Down and out in New York City[00:01:11]
Ain't nowhere to be but where can you go[00:01:16]
When you're down and out in New York City[00:01:21]
I'm never never never gonna get that way again[00:01:27]
No no no[00:01:33]
No no not me[00:01:36]
When you need a friend[00:01:46]
Need to have a[00:01:49]
When you want a friend[00:01:52]
Going to get myself together until the morning[00:01:55]
Going to leave it all like one bad dream[00:02:00]
All the fat cats in the bad hats doing me a real big favor[00:02:06]
Got the fat cats in the bad hats laying it on real good[00:02:11]
Here's a dime boy give me a shine boy[00:02:17]
Give me a shine boy[00:02:30]
Give me a shine[00:02:35]
Down and out New York City[00:02:55]
Ain't nowhere to be where can you go[00:03:01]
When you're down and out in New York City[00:03:06]
Said I'm never never never gonna get that way again[00:03:11]
No no no no not me[00:03:17]
When you need a friend troubled mind[00:03:28]
When you need a friend you got a troubled mind[00:03:34]
Ain't nobody going to give you one thin dime[00:03:40]
Friends can be cruel sometimes can be sweet[00:03:52]
But what what bugs a man what hurts a man[00:04:01]
When you give him a drink[00:04:05]
Just can't get nothing to eat[00:04:08]
That's New York City[00:04:14]
That's New York City[00:04:16]
New York City[00:04:19]
A hundred and twenty five street[00:04:25]
Bricks eighth avenue[00:04:34]
