New York City Lyrics

New York City tonight
And you know I feel alright
Even though I'm so far away from home

Up the avenues and down the streets
Hanging out at the lower east side
I got my friends, got the Casualties
And tonight well I feel alright

Well I like the music, I like the weather
Wanna live here someday
This song goes out to all the people
In this city that I love

Down the avenues and up the streets
Hanging out at Niagra's tonight
There's a mural of Joe Strummer on the wall
And tonight it made me feel alright

Well I like the music, I like the weather
Wanna live here someday
This song goes out to all the people
In this city that I love

New York City tonight
And you know I feel alright
Even though I'm so far away from Wilmington, my home

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
