8th Avenue Shuffle

Hey, hey, honey, what's on your mind Well, you said that sleepin' with a poor band's not your style Ain't that just a little unkind Hey, Marlon Brando, what would you do in a spot like this I don't play as your pawn tonight Doin' the New York Hustle with a hundred dollar miss Summer night in the city New York girls they always make you feel so fine There's music, and I can always hear it playin' New York Nights and there's music in the streets A doin' the Eighth Avenue Shuffle on a Friday afternoon With the hum of a thousand engines Singin' that old familiar tune And now yakety yak and don't talk back When a guy lay me down with my Pontiac Tell those high school queens of mine that the Prom was for your monkey shine Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City New York girls are oh, so pretty Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City New York girls make you feel so fine Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City New York girls are oh, so pretty Try 'n' a catch a cab in New York City Music in the streets Another night, another town I'm out on the road and ther's no one around And it's rainin', yeah, it's rainin' Silence is all around It's cold and lonely, oh darlin', if only I could feel it Oh, can you feel it Eighth Avenue Shuffle on a Friday afternoon With the hum of a thousand engines Singin' that old familiar tune Hey, Marlon Brando, do you agree it feels so fine Doin' the New York Hustle These girls are doin' the monkey shine Summer night in the city New York girls they always make you feel so fine There's music, and I can always hear it playin' New York Nights and there's music in the streets
