Verse 1:
2
D
3
When i first saw New York city
4
I was green down to the core
5
You could see my red neck glowing
6
For a mile or maybe more
7
A
8
Between the hustlers and the hookers
9
I must have made their day
10
Cause they peeled me like an apple,Lawd
11
D
12
And sent me on my way
13
Bridge 1:
14
When you're pushed and shoved and almost mugged
15
It ain't no place to be
16
So i came to one conclusion
17
A
18
New York ain't for me
19
Chorus:
20
D
21
From sea to shining sea
22
And coast to coast
23
Somewhere in the middle
24
Is the land i love the most
25
A
26
I ain't California pretty
27
I can't survive the Great White Way
28
I'm too dumb for New York city
29
D
30
And too ugly for L.A.
31
Verse 2:
32
I made my way to Tinseltown
33
To Hollywood and Vine
34
Out among those pretty faces
35
I'd surely find a place for mine
36
A
37
The way i walk-the way i talk
38
They'll hang on every word
39
But don't call me,i'll call you
40
D
41
Was all i ever heard
42
Bridge 2:
43
In L.A. what they're thinking
44
Ain't what they talk about
45
At least in New York city
46
A
47
There's never any doubt
48
Chorus.
49
A
50
I'm too dumb for New York city
51
D
52
And too ugly for L.A.
