Lyrics
I love the country, don't get me wrong
Cheap beer and cheating songs
Nights spent slow dancing in the dark
But wet concrete and city lights
Flower shops open all night
Still got a place in my wild heart
Lord, I know living there'll kill me
Still there ain't nowhere else I'd rather be
When I die, lay me 6 feet
Down beneath 14th street
Bury me in New York City
From Chelsea to the Bowery
You know I left them, but they ain't left me
You run away, you never really leave
Still waiting on the same old train
Every night inside my brain
'Cause everyone drives trucks in Tennessee
Lord, I know living there'll kill me
Still there ain't nowhere else I'd rather be
When I die, lay me 6 feet
Down beneath West 4th street
Oh, bury me in New York City
Hey
Lord, I know living there'll kill me
Still there ain't nowhere else I'd rather be
When I die lay me 6 feet
Down beneath 14th street
Oh, bury me in New York City
Won't you bury me in New York City
Hey
Cheap beer and cheating songs
Nights spent slow dancing in the dark
But wet concrete and city lights
Flower shops open all night
Still got a place in my wild heart
Lord, I know living there'll kill me
Still there ain't nowhere else I'd rather be
When I die, lay me 6 feet
Down beneath 14th street
Bury me in New York City
From Chelsea to the Bowery
You know I left them, but they ain't left me
You run away, you never really leave
Still waiting on the same old train
Every night inside my brain
'Cause everyone drives trucks in Tennessee
Lord, I know living there'll kill me
Still there ain't nowhere else I'd rather be
When I die, lay me 6 feet
Down beneath West 4th street
Oh, bury me in New York City
Hey
Lord, I know living there'll kill me
Still there ain't nowhere else I'd rather be
When I die lay me 6 feet
Down beneath 14th street
Oh, bury me in New York City
Won't you bury me in New York City
Hey
