Lyrics
New York is killing me
Do-don't you-, don't you-, don't you-, don't you know
Killing me
Fast city livin' ain't all it's cracked up to be
Lord, have mercy, mercy on me
New York is killing, killing-
New York is killing, killing-
New York is killing me
Do-don't you-, don't you-, don't you-, don't you know
Killing me
Do-don't you-, don't you-, don't you-, don't you-
Killing, killing-
Fast city livin' ain't all it's cracked up to be
Lord, have mercy, mercy on me
New York is killing, killing-
New York is killing, killing-
New York is killing me
Do-don't you know
New York is killing, killing-
Killing me
Writer(s): Gil Scott Heron, James Thomas Smith, Katy Young, Rosa Slade
