Lyrics New York I Love You - The Waterboys
She
waited
at
the
door
till
all
his
saddest
words
were
spoken
Then
she
threw
them
with
some
seasoning
in
his
face
Duke
went
rambling
in
his
grief,
like
a
vagabond
or
thief
Trying
to
find
the
love
he
sought
some
other
place
He
walked
down
the
river
highway
in
the
melting
summer
sun
And
shouted
out
above
the
cars
and
trucks
I
wish
I
could
become
some
kind
of
psychedelic
bum
Or
a
happy
traveling
troubadour
deluxe
New
York
- whatcha
gonna
do
about
it?
New
York
- climb
up
on
the
roof
and
shout
it
New
York
- see
there
ain′t
no
doubt
about
it
Something
in
this
town
I
just
can't
live
without
She
lay
across
the
bed,
raven
hair
piled
atop
her
head
Re-reading
through
the
poem
that
she
wrote
She
had
a
feeling
in
her
belly
like
her
belly
had
been
screwed
But
luckily
she
knew
the
antidote
She
stepped
out
on
the
street
dressed
in
scarlet
head
to
feet
Her
hat
the
same
precise
shade
as
her
lips
She
tried
to
feel
the
way
she
had
when
love
was
young
and
gay
and
glad
She
couldn′t...
but
still
she
swung
her
hips
New
York
- whatcha
gonna
do
about
it?
New
York
- climb
up
on
the
roof
and
shout
it
New
York
- see
there
ain't
no
doubt
about
it
Something
in
this
town
I
just
can't
live
without
He
phoned
her
up
and
said,
honey,
it
was
nothing
but
a
number
And
numbers
can
mislead
you
and
confuse
To
which
she
said,
I′ve
heard,
like
guns
and
cash
and
sex
and
words
If
the
user
is
a
fool
they
get
misused
He
almost
smashed
the
phone
in
rage
but
it
held
his
database
So
he
lit
himself
a
little
joint
instead
And
told
himself
a
lie
about
the
who
and
when
and
why
And
kids
that′s
how
a
man
becomes
a
chowder-head
New
York
- whatcha
gonna
do
about
it?
New
York
- climb
up
on
the
roof
and
shout
it
New
York
- see
there
ain't
no
doubt
about
it
Something
in
this
town
I
just
can′t
live
without
She
wrote
a
bitter
novelette
and
stuck
it
on
the
internet
I
believe
you
still
can
find
it
there
for
free
In
the
morning
she
would
jog
then
post
updates
on
her
blog
And
one
day
she
upped
and
moved
to
Tennessee
The
landlord
rented
her
apartment
to
the
NY
Police
Department
Who
installed
a
cop
named
Franklin
J.J.
Paul
Who
was
putting
up
a
shelf,
humming
opera
to
himself
When
he
found
her
poems
nestled
in
the
wall
New
York
- whatcha
gonna
do
about
it?
New
York
- climb
up
on
the
roof
and
shout
it
New
York
- see
there
ain't
no
doubt
about
it
Something
in
this
town
I
just
can′t
live
without
Duke
double-checked
the
deadlock
of
his
Lower
East
Side
store
And
jumped
into
a
car
with
yellow
fins
He
told
himself
"just
tell
it
like
is,
man,
just
nail
it
on
the
line
And
be
honest
with
your
tongue
from
here
on
in"
He
was
never
satisfied
with
a
comfortable
ride
He
had
to
be
the
crazy
cosmonaut
in
flight
They
found
his
body
near
a
crumbling
Hudson
River
pier
On
a
wild
and
stormy
hot
midsummer
night
New
York
- whatcha
gonna
do
about
it?
New
York
- climb
up
on
the
roof
and
shout
it
New
York
- see
there
ain't
no
doubt
about
it
Something
in
this
town
I
just
can′t
live
without
Me
I
couldn't
sleep,
I
just
lay
there
in
a
heap
The
whole
city
was
a
swamp
of
heat
and
steam
At
six
a.m.
came
thunder
and
eventually
I
slumbered
Into
a
fanciful
and
curious
kind
of
dream
I
was
drivin'
Hank′s
Cadillac
as
he
rested
in
the
back
On
the
final
night
of
nineteen
fifty-two
I
offered
him
a
smoke
but
Hank
never
woke
He
was
too
far
gone,
and
he
was
only
passing
through
I
got
up
at
ten
to
five,
feeling
almost
seven-eighths
alive
And
was
sitting
in
my
favourite
easy
chair
When
Duke′s
immortal
soul
crowned
with
a
golden
aureole
Flew
by
my
window
on
its
way
to
who
knows
where
I
took
Tylenol
for
my
head
and
then
went
out
to
get
some
bread
Like
Lou
I
had
twenty
six
bucks
in
my
hand
By
the
Sixteen
Handles
shop
I
saw
an
overweight
cop
Stuffing
reams
of
paper
in
a
garbage
can
New
York
- whatcha
gonna
do
about
it?
New
York
- climb
up
on
the
roof
and
shout
it
New
York
- see
there
ain't
no
doubt
about
it
Something
in
this
town
I
just
can′t
live
without
New
York,
I
love
you
New
York,
New
York
New
York,
New
York
Meet
me
in
New
York,
New
York,
baby
New
York,
New
York
Even
the
shittiest
old
times
are
still
great
in
New
York,
New
York
New
York,
New
York
New
York,
New
York
New
York,
New
York
