Bilingual
Up in New York City
Where they dress so pretty
There's some things that they say
That'd send me on my way
Out in San Francisco
Up in the Hollywood hills
They're cock blocking all night
Popping down pills
Baby, I can't hang
I just can't hang
With that American slang
With that American slang
Well, they talk you up
Then they talk you back down
Well, they talk about you
When you're not around
Baby, I can't hang
I just can't hang
With that American slang
With that American slang
Way down in Memphis
They talk with a drawl
Well, it makes me wonder
Have they got sense at all?
Well, I can't hang
Baby, I can't hang
With that American slang
With that American slang
