Joan Armatrading Lyrics
"Heading Back To New York City"

Going back to New York city
To do the things I never did

I'm heading back to New York city
To see the things I never saw

Things like the ABC No Rio oh oh
I'm gonna search this town both high and low
I'm gonna go all the places where New Yorkers go.
I'm gonna see Staten Island gonna take the boat
I'm gonna search every place till I reach zero

Going back to New York city
You might be by those Asian trees
I'm heading back to New York city
Times square and all those Broadway babes

And if the devil has a playground yeh yeh
You wanna bet New York is the devil's swing
Let's shake let's make a deal
Of all the bright light cities spread around the globe
There ain't a skyline better than New York New York

I'm going back to the place I lost my heart
I'm going back to the place I lost my heart
Spend my time trying to find you
Here in New York

Going back to New York city
To do the things I never did
I know I'm gonna find you baby yeh yea
I'm gonna search this town both high and low
I'm gonna go all the places where New Yorkers go.
I'm gonna see Staten Island gonna take the boat
I'm gonna search every place till I reach zero

I'm going back to New York city
Heading back to find you

I'm going back to New York city
Heading back to find you
