CHORUS C Am G Am Lie la lie, lie la lie lie lie la lie, lie la lie, F G C lie la lie la la la lie la la la la lie! --------- VERSE 3 Asking only workman`s wages, I come looking for a job But I get no offers, just a come-on from the whores on 7th Avenue I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome G F G C I took some comfort there, ooh la la, la la la la la la la la. CHORUS VERSE 4 Then I`m laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone Going home, where the New York City winters aren`t bleeding me End of 4th verse
