New York's My Home - Ray Charles (雷·查尔斯)[00:00:00]
Listen all you New Yorkers[00:00:13]
There's a rumor going around[00:00:15]
That some of you good people[00:00:16]
Want to leave this town[00:00:17]
But you better consult me before you go[00:00:19]
(Why )[00:00:22]
'Cause I've been in all these places[00:00:23]
And I know[00:00:25]
(Chicago)[00:00:28]
Chicago's all right it's got the Wrigley Field[00:00:29]
And Soldier's Field and Marshall Field[00:00:32]
And it's on a nice lake[00:00:34]
But it hasn't got the hansoms in the park[00:00:38]
It hasn't got a skyline after dark[00:00:42]
That's why New York's my home[00:00:45]
Never let me leave it[00:00:48]
New York's my home sweet home[00:00:50]
(What about Hollywood )[00:00:53]
Hollywood's got movie stars[00:00:54]
And movie czars and cocktail bars[00:00:57]
And shiny cars and a wonderful climate they say[00:00:59]
But it hasn't got the handy subway train[00:01:05]
You seldom find a taxi when it rains[00:01:09]
That's why New York's my home[00:01:13]
Keep your California[00:01:15]
New York's my home sweet home[00:01:17]
(Geez what's happening in St Louis )[00:01:19]
Lots of people like St Louis[00:01:22]
It's got lots of shoes and the St Louis blues[00:01:24]
And one of our larger rivers runs by[00:01:27]
But it hasn't got the opera in The Met[00:01:33]
It hasn't got a famous string quartet[00:01:37]
That's why New York's my home[00:01:39]
No not a place to visit[00:01:43]
New York's my home sweet home[00:01:45]
(San Francisco)[00:01:48]
San Francisco is a lovely place[00:01:49]
It's got lots of hills and lots of thrills[00:01:52]
And it's on an ocean of some size[00:01:54]
But it hasn't got The Bowery or The Bronx[00:02:01]
It hasn't got the Harlem honky tonks[00:02:05]
That's why New York's my home[00:02:08]
Yeah it's my favorite city[00:02:11]
New York's my home sweet home[00:02:13]
So save your time and trouble[00:02:17]
I say save your railroad fare[00:02:20]
I said save your time and trouble brother[00:02:30]
Save your railroad fare[00:02:36]
'Cause when you leave New York[00:02:45]
Let me say you ain't going nowhere[00:02:48]
