JOHN LENNON NEW YORK CITY LYRICS


NEW YORK CITY LYRICS by JOHN LENNON:
From John Lennon's new album, Some Time In New York City)


Written by John Lennon  
Standing on the corner  
Just me and yoko ono  
We was waiting for jerry to land  
Up come a man with the guitar  
in his hand  
Singing "have a marijuana if you can"  
His name was Davis Peel  
And we found that he was real  
He sangs"The pope smokes  
dope everyday"  
Up come a police man shoved  
us up the street  
Singin, "power to the  
people today!"  
NYC...NYC...NYC  
Que pasa Ny'...Que pasa NY'  
Well we went to max's  
Kansas City  
Got down the nitty gritty  
With the Elephants Memory  
Band  
Laid something down  
As the news spread around  
About the Plastic Ono  
Elephants Memory Band!  
Well we played some funky  
boogie  
And laid some tutti frutti  
Singing "Long tall sally's  
a man"  
[ New York City lyrics from http://www.lyricsyoulove.com/ ]
Up come a preachman trying to be a teacher  
Singing "God's a red herring in grag!"  
NYC...NYC...NYC  
Que pasa Ny'...Que pasa NY'  
Well we did the Staten  
Island Ferry  
Making movies for the telly  
Played the fillmore and  
Apollo for freedom,  
Tried to shake our image  
Just a cycling through  
the village  
But found that we had left it  
back in london.  
Well nobody came to bug us,  
hustle ud or shove us  
so we decided to make it  
our home  
If the man wants to shove  
us out  
We gonna jump and shout  
The Statue of Liberty said,  
"come!"  
NYC...NYC...NYC  
Que pasa Ny'...Que pasa NY'  
NYC down in the village  
What a bad-ass city!  
Que pasa Ny'...Que pasa NY'  
New York City (John Lennon)
