New York City by John Lennon --------------------------------------------------------------- JOHN LENNON - NEW YORK CITY John Lennon From SOMETIME IN NEW YORK CITY album. Released on 1972. --------------------------------------------------------------- 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 sang "The pope smokes dope everyday" Up come a police man shoved us up the street Singin', "Power To The People Today!" New York City New York City New York City Que pasa New York? Que pasa New York? Hey, hey 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" Up come a preachman trying to be a teacher Singing "God's a red herring in grag!" New York City New York City New York City Que pasa New York? Que pasa New York? Ah, ha (GUITAR SOLO) Hey, New York City Alright, New York City New York City Que pasa New York? Que pasa New York? 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 us 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!" New York City New York City New York City Que pasa New York? Que pasa New York? Hey, hey (PIANO SOLO) New York City Back in New York City Hey, New York City Que pasa New York? Que pasa New York? New York City Down in the village What a bad-ass city! Que pasa New York? Que pasa New York? Hey, rock on Oh, city Yeah Que pasa New York? Que pasa New York?
