     ---------------------------------------------------------------





    Standing on the corner
    Just me and Yoko Ono
    We was waiting for jerry to land
    Up come a man with the guitar in his hand
    Singing "have a marijuana if you can"
    His name was Davis Peel
    And we found that he was real
    He sang "The pope smokes dope everyday"
    Up come a police man shoved us up the street
    Singin', "Power To The People Today!"

    New York City
    New York City
    New York City
    Que pasa New York?
    Que pasa New York?
    Hey, hey

    Well we went to Max's Kansas City
    Got down the nitty gritty
    With the Elephants Memory Band
    Laid something down
    As the news spread around
    About the Plastic Ono Elephants Memory Band!
    Well we played some funky boogie
    And laid some tutti frutti
    Singing "Long tall sally's a man"
    Up come a preachman trying to be a teacher
    Singing "God's a red herring in grag!"

    New York City
    New York City
    New York City
    Que pasa New York?
    Que pasa New York?
    Ah, ha

     (GUITAR SOLO)

    Hey, New York City
    Alright, New York City
    New York City
    Que pasa New York?
    Que pasa New York?

    Well we did the Staten Island Ferry
    Making movies for the telly
    Played the Fillmore and Apollo for freedom
    Tried to shake our image
    Just a cycling through the village
    But found that we had left it back in London
    Well nobody came to bug us,
    Hustle us or shove us
    So we decided to make it our home
    If the man wants to shove us out
    We gonna jump and shout
    The Statue of Liberty said "come!"

    New York City
    New York City
    New York City
    Que pasa New York?
    Que pasa New York?
    Hey, hey

     (PIANO SOLO)

    New York City
    Back in New York City
    Hey, New York City
    Que pasa New York?
    Que pasa New York?

    New York City 
    Down in the village
    What a bad-ass city!
    Que pasa New York?
    Que pasa New York?
    Hey, rock on
    Oh, city
    Yeah
    Que pasa New York?
    Que pasa New York?
