Music and Lyrics © Matthew Ebel
I wake up in the mornin’
with a cold wind pouring in.
Some people dream of California,
and that’s alright if you like your weather warmer,
but I got me a city.
She stays up at night with me.
Some towns are too laid back
but my city’s an insomniac.
I get so turned about and burned out
and confused and confined, yeah,
but all I know is that I’m
crazy for that New York state of mind.
Good morning, New York.
Good morning, New York.
Good morning, New York.
Good morning… (yeah…)
I get down to the station
where the rats are all racing.
Some swear they’re bound for better places
and that’s alright if your thing is open spaces,
but I love me the city.
She sings along with me.
Some say that sleep is overrated
and I know ’cause I’m overcaffeinated.
She can confuse you and abuse you
but she gets in your head, yeah,
but she’s my empire and if you don’t like the
taste of this Big Apple you can just bite me instead.
(Instrumental)
When I open up my eyes
all I want to see is her face
and tell her that I love her more
every second I’m awake.
Good morning, New York. x9
Good morning… (yeah…)
