A Night in New York Songtext
von Elbow Bones and The Racketeers

I have known a thousand eyes
Who would knock my big brown eyes?
And at least a hundred times
They have almost lost their minds

I have had them promise me
Caviar and limousines
But if they really knew me
Really, if they knew me

They′d take me for a night in New York
Take me for a night in New York
Oh, take me for a night

You have had so many girls
Speak of fancy cars and pearls
And the girl I used to know
Only dated guys with plenty dough

Women all have need a guy
She don't have to tell big lies
′Cause if he really knew me
He could really wound me


And take me for a night in New York
Take me for a night in New York
Oh, take me for a night

Once we're at Central Park
Is guaranteed to win a heart
A street serenader's guitar
Sings the stars out just where we are

So if you wanna please me
I don′t mind if you tease me

Just take me for a night in New York
Take me for a night in New York
Oh, take me for a night

So if you wanna please me
I don′t mind if you tease me (Don't mind if you tease me)

Just take me for a night in New York
Take me for a night in New York
Oh, take me for a night
Take me for a night

So if you wanna please me
I don′t mind if you tease me


Take me for a night in New York
Take me for a night in New York
Take me for a night in New York
Oh, take me for a night
