Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

NEW YORK cT DcWN
(Browder/Darnell)

New York at Dawn
You bon vivant
I should be in my room
You got me chasing moonlight
New York at Dawn
You bon vivant
You send me on a binge
Throw caution thru the window

Hideaways and promenades
cnd "may I take you home?"
Cigarettes and cool coquettes
cnd disconnected phones
Lucky, I guess
They call you Mister Lucky

New York at Dawn
You bon vivant
You powder up my nose
Then put me on the clothes line

Plaza suites and sleepy streets
cnd melancholy skies
Broken hearts and other parts
Taxi-cab goodbyes
Lucky, I guess
They call you Mister Lucky





You're like the late late show
Perfect for lazy romance
