Sometimes when I'm driving late in the night[00:00:07]

When there's that special kind of early morning light[00:00:10]

When the evergreen stands out in the dark[00:00:14]

I'm thinking about that northern state of New York and New York[00:00:18]

New York state was good to me[00:00:28]

'Cause I found a wife and made a family[00:00:31]

If anyone asks what it means to me[00:00:35]

Well it's the nearest to home I'll ever be in New York[00:00:38]

New York[00:00:46]

New York city's just a part of the state[00:00:50]

Some people hate it I think it's great[00:00:52]

It's an honest city won't tell you a lie[00:00:56]

And take your money and look you straight in the eye New York[00:01:00]

When the city got too much to take[00:01:10]

When the pressure built up and we thought we'd break[00:01:14]

When everyone else was a'heading south[00:01:17]

We went our own way and we a'headed north of New York[00:01:21]

New York state was good to me[00:01:32]

'Cause I found a wife and made a family[00:01:35]

If anyone asks what it means to me[00:01:38]

Well it's the nearest to home I'll ever be in New York[00:01:41]

New York[00:01:49]

Well I wish I could take that trip again[00:01:49]

Five hundred miles up to Lake Champlain[00:01:56]

Fishing for supper in a home made boat[00:01:59]

The love we made and the songs I wrote of New York[00:02:03]

And we rented a house on the Long Island sand[00:02:13]

Where work in the city was close at hand[00:02:17]

In the summer we swam in the Montauk Bay[00:02:20]

And England felt so far away from New York[00:02:24]

New York state was good to me[00:02:34]

'Cause I found a wife and made a family[00:02:37]

If anyone asks what it means to me[00:02:41]

Well it's the nearest to home I'll ever be in New York[00:02:44]

New York[00:02:52]

And it may sound strange that an Englishman[00:02:55]

Should lose his heart to a foreign land[00:02:59]

Maybe it's because I've a'been away[00:03:02]

Too long from her it's hard to say New York[00:03:06]

New York state was good to me[00:03:17]

'Cause I found a wife and made a family[00:03:19]

If anyone asks what it means to me[00:03:23]

Well it's the nearest to home I'll ever be in New York[00:03:26]

New York[00:03:33]

New York[00:03:37]
