Rockin' with Reed (Charly 285)
Goin' to New York, get on the New York quiz show
Gotta win myself some all o' that dough
I'm goin' to New York
I'm goin' to New York
I'm goin' to New York
I'm goin' if I have to walk
I been down South
You know I been out East
I been out West, but I'm not gonna rest
'Til I get to New York
I'm goin' to New York
I'm goin to New York
I'm goin' if I have to walk
I've been here, I've been there
Honey, I been some a-everywhere
But I'm goin' to New York
I'm goin' to New York
I'm goin' to New York
I'm goin' if I have to walk
