THE THINGS WERE
SPINNIN'
'ROUND ME
AND ALL MY THOUGHTS
WERE CLOUDY
AND I HAD BEGUN
TO DOUBT
ALL THE THINGS
THAT WERE ME
BEEN IN SO MANY
PLACES
YOU KNOW I'VE RUN
SO MANY RACES
AND LOOKED INTO
THE EMPTY FACES
OF THE PEOPLE
OF THE NIGHT
AND SOMETHING
IS JUST NOT RIGHT
'CAUSE I KNOW
THAT I GOTTA GET OUT
OF HERE
I'M SO ALONE
DON'T YOU KNOW
THAT I GOTTA GET OUT
OF HERE
'CAUSE NEW YORK'S
NOT MY HOME
4 BAR
BREAK
THOUGH ALL THE STREETS
ARE CROWDED
THERE'S SOMETHING
STRANGE ABOUT IT
I LIVED THERE
'BOUT A YEAR
AND I NEVER ONCE
FELT AT HOME
I THOUGHT I'D MAKE
THE BIG TIME
I LEARNED A LOT
OF LESSONS
AWFUL QUICK
AND NOW
I'M TELLIN' YOU
THAT THEY WERE NOT
THE NICE KIND
AND IT'S BEEN SO LONG
SINCE I HAVE FELT FINE
THAT'S THE REASON
THAT I GOTTA GET OUT
OF HERE
I'M SO ALONE
DON'T YOU KNOW
THAT I GOTTA GET OUT
OF HERE
'CAUSE NEW YORK'S
NOT MY HOME
20 BAR
INSTRUMENTAL
BREAK
THAT'S THE REASON
THAT I GOTTA GET OUT
OF HERE
I'M SO ALONE
DON'T YOU KNOW
THAT I GOTTA GET OUT
OF HERE
'CAUSE NEW YORK'S
NOT MY HOME
