( live peel session 2000 )



Old new york city is a friendly old town

From washington heights to harlem on down.

There's a-mighty many people all millin' all around

They'll knock you when you're up and kick you when you're down.



It's a mighty long ways from the golden gate

To rockefeller center n' the empire state.

Mister empire sets up as high as a bird

Old mister rockefeller never says a word.



From the country

Livin' down in new york town
