Luke Temple - Old New York lyrics

Think I'm leaving old New York behind A whisper west is blowing through my mind Thought I'd give it one good college try Stare too long the sun will burn you blind See that open road I know I'll take it Try and slip from the city's grip I've tried I've tried but why Alters built on greed and glamour lust A prized idea for children born of trust Too many are left in fortunes dust Left to feed and feed they always must See that open road I know I'll take it Try and slip from the cities grip I've tried I've tried but why Live where they aim to die I've tried I've tried but why Live where they aim to die Squeeze through the needles I Something's in the ground couldn't you hear that awful sound Something's falling down couldn't you hear that awful sound See that open road I know I'll take it Try and slip from the cities grip I've tried I've tried but why Live where they aim to die I've tried I've tried but why Live where they aim to die Squeeze through the needles eye
