Big Apple Dreamin’ (Hippo)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We're so young and pretty, we're so young and clean So many things that we have never seen Let's move from Ohio, sell this damn old store Big Apple dreamin' on a wooden floor [Refrain] Skyscrapers and subways and stations Staring up at the United Nations [Chorus] New York is waiting for you and me, baby Waiting to swallow us down New York, we're coming to see what you're made of Are you as great as you sound? [Verse 2] Heard 'bout them massages, and all those dirty shows And I read somewhere some places never close While we waste time on yokels, comin' through the door Big Apple dreamin' on a wooden floor [Refrain] Skyscrapers and subways and stations Staring up at the United Nations [Chorus] New York is waiting for you and me, baby Waiting to swallow us down New York, we're coming to see what you're made of Are you as great as you sound? New York is waiting for you and me, baby Waiting to swallow us down New York, we're coming to see what you're made of Are you as tough as you sound? Oh, New York is waiting for you and me, baby Waiting to swallow us down, woo-ooh New York, we're coming to see what you're made of Are you as tough as you sound? Yeah [Outro] New York, we're waiting, baby Waiting to swallow us down New York, we're coming, see what you're made of You can't be as tough as you sound Oh, New York, you and me, baby Waiting to swallow us down New York, we're coming to see what you're made of Are you as great as you sound? Oh, New York Oh, New York, we're coming Oh, we're coming to see what you're made of Oh, you can't be as tough as you sound Me and my baby, we're coming Oh, we're coming They're waitin' for you and me, baby Oh, mama...
