There’s just something about this hotel Got me wishing I was dead Gotta get outta New York City, son Somewhere I can clear my head
I was just kicking along the sidewalk Don’t wanna look you straight in the eyes Don’t wanna ask you how you’re doing Don’t seem to care if you live or if you die
Just gotta get me somewhere Somewhere that I can feel free Gotta get outta New York city, boy New York City’s killing me.
Just outside of Nashville I met the woman of my dreams Sure would like to get to know her Maybe find out what it means
Get so tired of all this country Get so tired of all this noise Gotta get back up in my country Have a couple drinks with the good ol’ boys
Just gotta me somewhere Somewhere that I can feel free Get me outta outta New York city, son New York City’s killing me
Just gotta me somewhere Somewhere that I can feel free Get me outta outta New York city, son New York City’s killing me
