Say, hey little girl take me by the hand
Walk with me down this boardwalk one last time again
We'll see those pretty pier lights, hear those carnival sounds
We're gonna stop right at the top tonight, when the ferris wheel goes 'round
I sing for these tourists, by I dream life on the water
This dream it gets broken, as life gets harder and harder
Gonna leave this candy apple town behind
Gonna get out while I still can
Going to New York city, with this guitar in my hand.
Been wishin' on these stars to long, been playin' in these bars to long
Been hold up in your arms to long, been a prisoner of my heart to long
Goin' to New York city, gonna find out where I stand
And I'll be walking down Broadway, with this guitar in my hand
