New York City Blues

New York City Blues - The Yardbirds/Jeff Beck

If you've ever been to New York City

You know what I'm talking about

Yes you do

Well if you've ever been to New York City

You know what I'm talking about

They got such pretty little girls in that big town

Make a man wanna jump around and shout

I met a little girl there

She was about five foot eight

I said I want you to love me

She said why man that'd be great

So

I got long hair but

She took me back

Back to see her pad

But the first thing I saw when I arrived there

Was a big black shiny shotgun

In the hands of her dad

Alright now this is how it was

Oh no

Well alright

I finally learned my lesson

Such a long time ago

Next little woman that I date all right

I've got to know I've got to know her family too

Yes indeed I gotta know her family too

But if you don't want to be filled full of shotgun holes

Mister this song is just for you
