Better take me out of the way
If I can`t have her, Don`t wanna stay
After Manhattan, I`m back on my feet
I`m a loser in love, I`ll admit my defeat
Brought up in New York, Brought down in L.A.
It`s a nice place to visit, but I couldn`t stay
Brought up in New York, Brought down in L.A.
They asked me, that`s all I have to say
Thought she loved me, guess I was wrong
Another place where I didn`t belong
After the city and places I`ve known
And I`m by myself but I`m never alone
Brought up in New York, Brought down in L.A.
A nice place to visit, but I couldn`t stay
Brought up in New York, Brought down in L.A.
They asked me, that`s all I have to say
Brought up in New York, Brought down in L.A.
A nice place to visit, but I couldn`t stay
Brought up in New York, Brought down in L.A.
They asked me, that`s all I have to say
