Lyrics
Well, Mel said, "Mike, there's some work to do
'Cause there's some folks who wanna hear your songs
So you gotta take a trip into New York City
But I promise you won't be there long."
Well, I said, "Mel, what you tryin' to do?
You know pollution's at an all-time high."
He said, "I booked the top floor in the New York Hilton
If you're lucky, you can see the sky. Just you try."
Good sounds going down, jump around in New York City
But I gotta get back, back where I belong, yeah
Greyhounds, underground, lost and found in New York City
But I got to get back, back where I belong
All my friends down home in the country
Think I'm up and always on the go
If they could see me in my room eating king-size burgers
While I watch the Johnny Carson show
Well, I sang my songs and I talked for a little
And Mel says, "You did another good show"
And then he's off making deals and I'm a-sleeping in my room
To that lullaby of sirens below. Hear 'em blow!
Good sounds going down, jump around in New York City
But I got to get back, back where I belong
Greyhounds, underground, lost and found in New York City
But I wanna get back, back where I belong
You know there's one place that I'd rather be
Back where that air is smelling sweet and free. Can't you see? Oh!
Good sounds going down, jump around in New York City
You know I gotta get back, back where I belong
Those greyhounds, underground, lost and found in New York City
Oh, I got to get back, back where I belong
Back where I belong
Back where I belong
