Lyrics
New York Girl
Deedee and Phillip Bynoe
Jennie?s Dad is far away
It?s taking her a little getting use to
Her mommy spends her time alone
They?re gonna move to a place she don?t know
She?ll miss her friends the memories
Of central park and running through the city
They pack their bags so they won?t be
A single mom a broken home a disconnected family
She?ll miss the snow
The beautiful changing of the leaves
Nothing replaces home
You can take the girl out of New York City
But you can?t take New York out of the Girl
You can take the girl out of New York City
But you can?t take New York out of the Girl
She makes a joke too honestly
That never stops the girl from making friends so easily
While time?s ticking slowly and friends meditate
She?s in your face she?s every place
She?s running like she?s in a race
And if you ask her
How do you get a million things done in one day
There?s one reply?chorus
Auditions take me to L.A.
The land where dreams become a million dollars
But I miss walks along Times Square
I can?t help but admit sometimes a part of me is still
there? chorus
