New York's My Home - Ray Charles[00:00:00]
Listen all you New Yorkers[00:00:14]
There's a rumor going around[00:00:15]
That some of you good people[00:00:17]
Want to leave this town[00:00:18]
But you better consult me before you go[00:00:19]
Why[00:00:23]
'Cause I've been in all these places[00:00:23]
And I know[00:00:25]
Chicago[00:00:29]
Chicago's all right it's got the wrigley field[00:00:30]
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[00:00:39]
It hasn't got a skyline after dark[00:00:43]
That's why new york's my home[00:00:46]
Never let me leave it[00:00:49]
New york's my home sweet home[00:00:50]
What about hollywood[00:00:54]
Hollywood's got movie stars[00:00:55]
And movie czars and cocktail bars[00:00:57]
And shiny cars and a wonderful climate they say[00:01:00]
But it hasn't got the handy subway train[00:01:06]
You seldom find a taxi when it rains[00:01:10]
That's why new york's my home[00:01:13]
Keep your california[00:01:16]
New york's my home sweet home[00:01:17]
Geez what's happening in st louis[00:01:21]
Lots of people like st louis[00:01:23]
It's got lots of shoes and the st louis blues[00:01:25]
And one of our larger rivers runs by[00:01:28]
But it hasn't got the opera in the met[00:01:34]
It hasn't got a famous string quartet[00:01:38]
That's why new york's my home[00:01:41]
No not a place to visit[00:01:44]
New york's my home sweet home[00:01:45]
San francisco[00:01:49]
San francisco is a lovely place[00:01:50]
It's got lots of hills and lots of thrills[00:01:52]
And it's on an ocean of some size[00:01:55]
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[00:02:16]
I say save your railroad fare[00:02:23]
I said save your time and trouble brother[00:02:31]
Save your railroad fare[00:02:38]
'Cause when you leave new york[00:02:44]
Let me say you ain't going nowhere[00:02:51]
