- Hard Times In New York City
Old New York City is a friendly old town,
From Washington Heights to Harlem on down.
There's a-mighty many people all millin' all around,
They'll knock you when you're up and kick you when you're down.
It's a mighty long ways from the Golden Gate
To Rockefeller center n' the Empire State.
Mister Empire sets up as high as a bird,
Old Mister Rockefeller never says a word.
From the country,
Livin' down in New York town
From the country,
Livin' down in New York town
Old New York City is a friendly old town,
From Washington Heights to Harlem on down.
There's a-mighty many people all millin' all around,
They'll knock you when you're up and kick you when you're down.
It's a mighty long ways from the Golden Gate
To Rockefeller center n' the Empire State.
Mister Empire sets up as high as a bird,
Old Mister Rockefeller never says a word.
From the country,
Livin' down in New York town
From the country,
Livin' down in New York town
