lyrics

When I graduated college
I moved into the east village
I got a job at a cool office
I got Billy Joel’s Greatest Hits
Huh-huh-huh (x2)
I found a couple bars to lay my head
And I drove to Queens and I bought a bed
I made a whole bunch of New York friends
And I wore all black cause everyone else did
Huh-huh-huh (x2)
And now I’m a New Yorker
At an art gallery downtown
I’m a New Yorker
Get the hell outta my way now
Yankees, Rangers, and Knicks
Theater, Pizza, Velvet Underground
I’m a New Yorker
Get the hell outta my way now and go die
Now I’m used to living hand to mouth
I go to Rockaway when it’s really hot out
I hate Williamsburg North, East and South
I know all the lunch spots in Midtown
Huh-huh-huh (x2)
I work so hard that my hair’s been gettin’ thin
I ain’t got no time to hit the gym
I picked up a little bit of Spanish
I’m a pretty smart guy, not for nothing
Huh-huh-huh (x2)
And now I’m a New Yorker
At an art gallery downtown
I’m a New Yorker
Get the hell outta my way now
Yankees, Rangers, and Knicks
Theater, Pizza, Velvet Underground
I’m a New Yorker
Get the hell outta my way now and go die
Go die (x4)

This is still such an odd compilation of songs to me. However, I'm glad I discovered it among the new and notable albums almost two long years ago. Happy birthday! Alex Lucas
