New York's My Home - Ray Charles (雷·查尔斯)[00:00:00]
Written by:Jenkins[00:00:06]
Listen all you know New York's[00:00:13]
There's a rumor going around[00:00:14]
That some of you good people[00:00:16]
Want to leave this town[00:00:17]
But you better consult with 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[00:00:24]
Chicago[00:00:28]
Chicago's all right[00:00:29]
It's got the Wrigley Field and[00:00:30]
Soldier's field and Marshall field[00:00:31]
And it's on a nice lake[00:00:33]
But it hasn't got[00:00:38]
The hansoms in the park[00:00:39]
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[00:00:49]
What about Hollywood[00:00:53]
Hollywood's got movie stars and[00:00:55]
Movie czars and cocktail bars and[00:00:57]
Shiny cars and a wonderful climate they say[00:00:59]
But it hasn't got[00:01:05]
The handy subway train[00:01:06]
You seldom find a taxi[00:01:09]
When it rains[00:01:11]
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[00:01:20]
Lots of people like St Louis[00:01:22]
It's got lots of shoes[00:01:24]
And the St Louis blues and[00:01:26]
One of our larger rivers runs by[00:01:28]
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[00:01:40]
No not a place to visit[00:01:43]
New York's my home sweet home[00:01:44]
San Francisco[00:01:48]
San Francisco is a lovely place[00:01:49]
It's got lots of hills[00:01:52]
And lots of thrills and it's[00:01:53]
On an ocean of some size[00:01:55]
But it hasn't got[00:02:01]
The Bowery or the Bronx[00:02:02]
It hasn't got the Harlem honkytonks[00:02:04]
That's why New York's my home[00:02:08]
Yeah it's my favorite city[00:02:10]
New York's my home sweet home[00:02:12]
So save your time and trouble[00:02:15]
I say save your railroad fare[00:02:22]
I said save your time and trouble brother[00:02:30]
Save your railroad fare[00:02:37]
Cause when you leave New York[00:02:45]
Let me say you ain't going nowhere[00:02:50]
