Hard Times In New York Town
Come you ladies and you gentlemen, a-listen to my song.
Sing it to you right, but you might think it's wrong.
Just a little glimpse of a story I'll tell
"Bout an East Coast city that you all know well.
It's hard times in the city,
Livin' down in New York town.
Old New York City is a friendly old town,
From Washington Heights to Harlem on down.
There's a-mighty many people all millin' all around,
They'll kick you when you're up and knock you when you're down.
It's hard times in the city,
Livin' down in New York town.
It's a mighty long ways from the Golden Gate
To Rockefeller Plaza n' the Empire State.
Mister Rockefeller sets up as high as a bird,
Old Mister Empire never says a word.
It's hard times from the country,
Livin' down in New York town.
Well, it's up in the mornin' tryin' to find a job of work.
Stand in one place till your feet begin to hurt.
If you got a lot o' money you can make yourself merry,
If you only got a nickel, it's the Staten Island Ferry.
And it's hard times in the city,
Livin' down in New York town.
Mister Hudson come a-sailin' down the stream
And old Mister Minuet paid for his dream.
Bought your city on a one-way track,
'F I had my way I'd sell it right back.
And it's hard times in the city,
Livin' down in New York town.
I'll take all the smog in Cal-i-for-ne-ay,
'N' every bit of dust in the Oklahoma plains,
'N' the dirt in the caves of the Rocky Mountain mines.
It's all much cleaner than the New York kind.
And it's hard times in the city,
Livin' down in New York town.
So all you newsy people, spread the news around,
You c'n listen to m' story, listen to m' song.
You c'n step on my name, you c'n try 'n' get me beat,
When I leave New York, I'll be standin' on my feet.
And it's hard times in the city,
Livin' down in New York town.

there's too much confusion that's the big headline too much is illusion 'cause it's 1999 there's too much pollution that's a sign of the times too much of intrusion dance and you'll be fine to the rock steady,
Remember The Good Times
Good times bad times Bad times good times We were twisting Chubby Checker style In a roaring sixties summer night We walked the moon and we were free When Jimi played guitar We shared a dream
Wonderful
If I fell in love with you Would you understand me, dear Love is weird I colored you a valentine Struggled just to stay inside the lines I lose my mind I really can't believe I lost
Too Afraid To Love You
My gears they grind More each day And I feel like They're gonna grind away And the city blocks They drive me wild They're never ending Mile after mile I just don't know what to do I'm too afraid
Молитва
Навчіть мене рослини зросту, буяння, і кипіння, й хмелю. Прасловом, наче зерном простим хай вцілю в суть, мов птаха трелем. Навчіть мене рослини, тиші, щоб став сильний, мов дужі ріки, коли до сну їх приколише луна неземної
