New York Girls
Matt White Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was a lonely man, almost twenty-five
Just wanted to fall in love at some point in my life
Met this girl, we dated, she was such a freak
Kept asking me when I'd call, I told her mmm, next week

All of these things I said are true about you
All of these things I wanna do to you, yeah
Hey man, I feel alright, these New York girls are crazy
They look so good and they ditch so fine, these New York girls are crazy
Save me, save me, these New York girls are crazy
Crazy, save me please

I thought I should give it up, move out to L.A.
I heard those blond haired babes lived their lives a different way
He found me this hotty girl, we were drinking all night long
We're talking about all things, she flashed me her red stone, yeah

All of these things I said are true about you
All of these things I wanna do to you, yeah

Hey man, I feel alright, these New York girls are crazy
They look so good and they ditch so fine, these New York girls are crazy
Save me, save me, these New York girls are crazy
Crazy, save me, please

All of these things I said are true about you
All of these things I wanna do to you, yeah

Hey man, I feel alright, these New York girls are crazy
They look so good and they ditch so fine, these New York girls are crazy




Save me, save me, these New York girls are crazy
Crazy, save me, please
