Song lyrics:

This ain’t New York
This ain’t paradise
This is hard work
This is sacrifice

I’m not waitin’
For a train to come
The ride I needed,
Went by long ago

It’s not easy
Again it’s not hard at all
To be told, what to do
And not think at all

I’m not achin’
Not ready for the fall
But this ain’t New York
This ain’t New York at all

I found me place
On this strange side of town
A white house on the edge of graveyard hill
It took quite a while
For delusion to come around
After that, life was just a
Matter of lost and found

This ain’t New York
This ain’t paradise
This is hard work
This is sacrifice

I found me place
On this strange side of town
A white house on the edge of graveyard hill
It took quite a while
For delusion to come around
After that, life was just a
Matter of lost and found

This ain’t New York
This ain’t neverland
This ain’t a wonder
Nothing god has send

I’m not waitin’
For anyone to call
Cause this ain’t New York
This ain’t New York at all
