Said hey little girl
Take me by the hand
Walk with me down this boardwalk one last
Time again
See those pretty pier lights
Hear those carnival sounds
We're stoppin at the top tonight
Where the ferris wheel goes round
You say that I'm restless
You don't understand
Tomorrow I'll be leaving on that
Morning train
Gonna leave this candy apple town behind
And get out while I still can
I'm goin to New York City
With this guitar in my hand
Been wishin on these stars to long
Been playin in the bars too long
Been holed up in your arms too long
Been a prisionor of my heart too long
Goin to New York City
To find out where I stand
And I'll be walkin down broadway
With this guitar in my hand
Well I sing for these tourists
Bout a dream life on the water
When the dreams they get broken
This life gets harder and harder
Gonna leave this candy apple town behind
And get out while I still can
Goin to New York City
With this guitar in my hand
Been wishin on these stars to long
Been playin in the bars too long
Been holed up in your arms too long
Been a prisionor of my heart too long
Goin to New York City
And find out where I stand
And I'll be walkin down broadway
With this guitar in my hand
