Jesse Malin - Whitestone City Limits lyrics

New York was a dirty place Everything was out of sorts Just another ba*tard kid And I never went back, never went back to Whitestone Another supermarket chain A little something for the pain Everybody looks the same And I never went back, never went back to Whitestone And I didn't do it for the money I was only doing what I liked And I'm so sad for you, honey The streets were like the Cretin hop Disco blasting on the block Got beat up in a parking lot And I never went back, never went back to Whitestone Graveyards and the factories Archie Bunker bigotry In the shadow of the world's fair And I never went back, never went back to Whitestone And I didn't want to hurt nobody I was only doing what was right And I'm so sad for you, honey Waiting on a midnight bus To get me to the seven train Running from the chicken hawks And I never went back, never went back to Whitestone And I didn't do it for the money I was only doing what I liked And I'm going back to New York City
