NEW YORK ONLY TALK ©BIRCH/LOWE 1998.
In Springsteen’s early words
I went to work with vocal chords
When Miss Young And Mini-Skirted
Flirted into view
In New York only talk
I made a pass at sexy walk
But Miss Young And Very Lonely
Only
wanted true
& LOOKIN' FASCINATIN' IS ONLY SURFACE PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS REHASHIN'
INSISTED MR SKINNY WRISTED
The error of my ways
Pointed out the man on stage
Was Miss Young And Very Lonely
Only wanted true
& LOOKIN' FASCINATING' IS ONLY SURFACE PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS REHASHIN'
PERSISTED MR SKINNY WRISTED
I got her the next day
By being very , very (very) plain
Seems Mr Skinny Wristed
Insisted the truth.
repeat 4 ......
LOOKIN' FASCINATEIN' IS ONLY SURFACE
PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS
REHASHIN'
LOOKIN' FASCINATEIN' IS ONLY SURFACE
PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS
REHASHIN'

Here
I sit
After
the prom
Trying
to think
‘Where
did I go wrong?’
Jenny’s
gone home
So
er-er-ly
And
now my heart
Is
in, misery
I
wanted so much
To
hold her tight
To
hug her and kiss her
All
through the night
But
now I guess, that will, never be
Cuz
Jenny’s gone home, and Woe is me
Woe
is me
Woe
is me
Jenny’s
gone home so er-er-ly
Woe
is me
Woe
is me
A
woe o, o, o,
Woe
is me
Jenny’s
gone home from the dance so er-erly
Just
when I thought, to make romance
Just
when I thought, to take a chance
Just
when I thought, it could, really be
Jenny’s
gone home so er-er-ly
And
now my heart
Is
in, misery
I
wanted so much
To
hold her tight
To
hug her and kiss her
All
through the night
But
now I guess, it will, never be
Cuz
Jenny’s gone home, and Woe is me
Woe
is me
Woe
is me
Jenny’s
gone home so er-er-ly
Woe
is me
Woe
is me
A
woe o, o, o,
Jenny’s
gone home from the dance so er-erly
And
now my heart
Is
in, misery.
