N.Y.C. - Steve Earle He was standing on the highway somewhere way out in the sticks. Guitar across his shoulder like a 30 ought six. He was staring in my head lights when I came around the bend. Climbed up on my shotgun side and told me with a grin: "I'M GOIN' TO NEW YORK CITY. I've never really been there just like the way it sounds. I heard the girls are pretty. :lick: :lick: There must be something happenin' there. 😀 It's just too big a town." He was cold and wet and hungry but he never did complain. Said he'd come a thousand mile through sleet and snow and rain. 😉 He had a hundred stories about the places that he'd been. He'd hang around a little while and hit the road again. HE'S GOIN' TO NEW YORK CITY. I've never really been there just like the way it sounds. I heard the girls are pretty. :lick: :lick: There must be something happenin' there. 😀 It's just too big a town. See I've been to New York City, seems like it was yesterday. I was standing like a pilgrim on the great white way. The girls were really pretty but they wouldn't talk to me. 🙁 I held out about a week went back to Tennessee. So I thought I better warn him as he climbed out of my car. Grabbed his battered suitcase and shouldered his guitar. I knew I was just jealous if I didn't wish him well. I slipped the kid a twenty said and "BILLY GIVE 'EM HELL!" HE'S GOIN' TO NEW YORK CITY. I've never really been there just like the way it sounds. I heard the girls are pretty. :lick: :lick: There must be something happenin' there. 😀 It's just too big a town. HE'S GOIN' TO NEW YORK CITY. I've never really been there just like the way it sounds. I heard the girls are pretty. :lick: :lick: There must be something happenin' there. 😀 It's just too big a town. GO GO GOING' TO NEW YORK CITY! GOING TO NEW YORK CITY! GOING TO NEW YORK CITY! From Steve's 1997 release "El Corazon" I suggest that everyone give this song a listen as you travel to the Beacon in March (It's a great CD).
