Goodnight NYC
Goodnight NYC and it's rowdy tenants
Goodnight to the single mother on fifth
wishing everyone would mind they business
Goodnight NYC
Goodnight NYC and to its' cops and robbers
Goodnight to the homeless people searching
for places to sleep in the stadium built for
the Brooklyn Dodgers. Goodnight NYC
Goodnight NYC shouting all the way to Queens
Goodnight to the rastas and hot mamas trying to be
more than just the average dope fiend
Goodnight NYC
Goodnight NYC and all of the bridges
Goodnight to the men and women trying to fill the gap
for those DHR weekend visits
Goodnight NYC
Goodnight NYC from Manhattan to the bay
Goodnight to the Wall Street rats always searching
for more stocks to play
Goodnight NYC
Goodnight NYC from Rykers to the good ole Sing Sing
Goodnight to inmates praying for letters and to hear
some Christmas bells ring
Goodnight NYC
Goodnight NYC may you forever shine and be a beacon
from the Hudson to lady liberty's feet
Keep a watchful eye over the city
that is never sleepin'
