Bilingual
It ain't nothin' but a concrete jungle, with people packed like sardines
Where everybody's tryin', to live beyond their means
Where all the natives hurry, and scurry too and fro
And like fleas on a puppy dog, they got no place to go
I wouldn't live in New York City, if they gave me the whole damn town
Talk about a bummer, it's the biggest one around
Sodom and Gommorah, was tame to what I found
I wouldn't live in New York City, if they gave me the whole damn town
Well, I ain't seen the sunshine, since the day that I arrived
'Cause brother, I've been busy, a-tryin' to survive
Nobody knows you've been here, 'til you're six-feet under ground
Then you become a statistic, if they remember to write you down
I wouldn't live in New York City, if they gave me the whole damn town
Talk about a bummer, it's the biggest one around
Sodom and Gommorah, was tame to what I found
I wouldn't live in New York City, if they gave me the whole damn town
