lirik lagu my love is in new york – black 47
joined the service out of school in the year of ’69
when the doors were ridin’ on the storm, hendrix was alive
and before i could blink an eye, i was sent to vietnam
to teach them people democracy
jesus, what a laugh.
all across the highlands, we moved in single file
lookin’ for them vietcong, i musta crawled a 1000 miles
but i’d only one thought on me mind,
’twas your eyes of emerald green
my love is in new york, oh she’s the only one for me
i learned to smoke the opium pipe, i learned it all too well
coz when the sh-lls are bangin’ in your ears
it stops that livin’ h-ll
then one night 6 months later
while in the dmz
me own dear u.s. air force blew the h-ll right out of me
still i loved my country
i saluted the old flag
when you’re a boy from woodside, queens
you give it all you have
’cause i knew you’d be there waitin’
with your eyes of emerald green
my love is in new york and she’s the only one for me
but when i got sent home at last, they jeered and spat at me
they called me a fascist, said i was the enemy
i could’ve put up with all of that
’twas no big thing to me
but you killed me with one look of disgust
from those emerald greens
now i sit down here on broadway, this pavement is me home
the war is long forgotten, for those who stayed at home
and i wish i had me opium pipe
to stop that livin’ h-ll
that’s goin’ on inside me head, i wish it all so well
and the doors still ride by on the storm
hendrix hides from joe
i should be history around here but where else is there to go
coz i know you’re out there somewhere,
with your eyes of emerald green
my love is in new york, oh she’s the only one for me
