1
Oh, well, I was born in a little bitty tar hut
2
And they called me a man
3
'Cause I couldn't keep my big, big mouth shut
4
So what's the sense of me sitting here leaving
5
When any ole day I might be even
6
And Lord knows that New York city's
7
Got a lot to do with it
8
I wish someday I could find the way
9
To get it out of my grain
10
This dirty old town's gonna sink right down
11
And I don't want to go with it
12
Well, I wish there was a way that
13
I knew to get even
14
A way to get a lick in
15
A 'bobbin' and a 'weavin'
16
Any ole thing besides goin' and a 'leavin'
17
You can do on a train
18
Well, I once knew a man
19
Who sailed around the world twice
20
He would have made it three
21
But he took a lot of bad advice
22
So you just tell me
23
What's the sense of me sittin' here leavin'
24
When any ole day I might get even
25
And Lord knows New York city's
26
Got a lot to do with it
27
I wish someday I could find a way
28
To get it out of my brain
29
This dirty old town's gonna sink right down
30
And I don't want to go with it
31
I wish there was a way
32
That I knew to get even
33
Way to get a lick in
34
A 'bobbin' and a'weavin'
35
Any ole thing besides goin' and a'leavin'
36
You can do on a train, oh, yes
37
Well, I once knew a man
38
Who sailed around the world twice
39
But his motor cooled down
40
And now he's deliverin' ice
41
Tell me what's the sense of him
42
Sittin' here leavin'
43
When any ole day he might get even
44
And Lord knows New York city's
45
Got a lot to do with it
46
I wish someday he could find a way
47
To get it out of his brain
48
This dirty old town's gonna sink right down
49
And I don't want to go with it
50
I wish there was a way
51
That I knew to get even
52
Way to get a lick in
53
A 'bobbin and a'weavin'
54
And all the things besides goin' and a'leavin'
55
You can do on a train, oh yeah
