Lyrics
New York, Crazy,
Vrs. 1.
If you want to live up in New York City,
get your self a penthouse,
over-looking Miss Liberty.
the fire's in her hand,
looking up to the sky.
If you want to cruise
on down the strip in your Mercedes,
searcing 'round the world
for some good lookin' ladies,
take 495, to the island that's long.
You go New York Go crazy.
Vrs. 2.
Started happy hour
drinkng whiskey on the rocks.
The boys in the band
said they're heading to the Bronx,
so you pick up your gold card,
and you go for a ride.
Friday night you stayed out late
checking out the dance scene.
Woke up in a waterbed
somewhere in the heart of Queens,
you painted the town
and you rock and rolled.
You go to New York, you go crazy.
Go to New York, crazy.
Sax solo
Used a good conection
for the party that just happened,
eighty stories high
in a section of Manhattan.
Rockin' till dawn
playing rythym and blues.
You wanna get your freak up
on in New York City
go to Rockaway beach
still do bikini's
in the summer time scene
it's the place to be.
New York crazy
Bridge: Yo we were hangin' out on Broadway waitin' for the show,
must have been a hundred people there, standin' at the door.
N.Y. Crazy
The band is forged in old school but kickin' with a new groove,
you better check us out before we're back in Belleview.
N.Y. Crazy
Had to get out for the week end just like everbody does,
dropped our brains into the music with a six shot whiskey buzz.
N.Y. Crazy
The Dance foor was rockin' everbody went insane,
when we did the locomotion it was train-train-train.
N.Y. Crazy
