8th avenue shuffle
doobie brothers, the
you said that sleepin' with a poor band's not your style
ain't that just a little unkind
what would you do in a spot like this
i don't play as your pawn tonight
doin' the new york hustle with a hundred dollar miss
new york girls they always make you feel so fine
and i can always hear it playin'
new york nights and there's music in the streets
a doin' the eighth avenue shuffle on a friday afternoon
with the hum of a thousand engines
singin' that old familiar tune
and now yakety yak and don't talk back
when a guy lay me down with my pontiac
tell those high school queens of mine that the
prom was for your monkey shine
try 'n' a catch a cab in new york city
try 'n' a catch a cab in new york city
new york girls make you feel so fine
try 'n' a catch a cab in new york city
try 'n' a catch a cab in new york city
i'm out on the road and ther's no one around
eighth avenue shuffle on a friday afternoon
with the hum of a thousand engines
singin' that old familiar tune
do you agree it feels so fine
doin' the new york hustle
these girls are doin' the monkey shine
new york girls they always make you feel so fine
and i can always hear it playin'
new york nights and there's music in the streets
