Ian Hunter - Central Park N' West Lyrics
(ian hunter)The gulf and western garbageJust aint the prettiest smellWhen youre sleeping on the 4th floor upIts like a living hellNew yorks finest rounding up the bumsThe firemen get no rest,And ambulances signal death, on central park n west.Now there aint no sheets upon my bed,Just a mattress and some wine.The rain is pouring through the nightAnd Im glad my life is mine.When frank carillo plays guitarTrying to get it off his chest.He gets the words he needs tonightOn central park n west.And I think, I think, I think, I think, I think its the best,When Im locked in the middle of new york city on central park n westAnd I know, I know, I know, I know, I know its a mess,But youve got to be crazy to live in the city, and new york citys the best.And we all want just someone just like meIn the city we call home.She leaves me sometimes when I write,cause I write better on my own.Bag ladies take my dollars)Put my conscience to the test.But waitresses give me coffee freeOn central park n west.So sing soul woman, sing the songs)Its time to sing them now.Im getting more than high from hearin emDont sing them quiet, sing them loud.For you sang with the best of themBut now youre just a guest.I tell you well get a hotel roomOn central park n west.cause I think, I think, I think, I think, I think its the best,When Im locked in the middle of new york city on central park n westAnd I know, I know, I know, I know, I know its a mess,But youve got to be crazy to live in the city, and new york citys the best.I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, oh yeah.I think, I think, I think, I think, I think its the best,When Im locked in the middle of new york city on central park n west.I know, I know, I know, I know, I know its a mess,But youve got to be crazy to live in the city, and new york citys the best.
