The Only Living Boy In New York Lyrics - Listening Booth: 1970 - Marc Cohn

Tom, get your plane right on time 

I know your part'll go fine 

Fly down to Mexico 

Doh-n-doh-de-doh-n-doh 

And here I am 

The only living boy in New York 

I get the news I need 

On the weather report 

Oh, I can gather all the news I need 

On the weather report 

Hey, I've got nothing to do today 

But smile, de-doh-n-doh-de-doh 

And here I am 

The only living boy in New York 

Half of the time we're gone 

But we don't know where 

And we don't know where 

Ah-ah-ah 

Ah-ah-ah 

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 

Here I am 

Half of the time we're gone 

But we don't know where 

And we don't know where 

Tom, get your plane right on time 

I know that you've been eager to fly now 

Hey, let your honesty shine, shine, shine now 

Doh-n-doh-de-doh-n-doh 

Like it shines on me 

The only living boy in New York 

The only living boy in New York 

Ah-ah-ah 

Ah-ah-ah 

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 

Here I am 

Ah-ah-ah 

Ah-ah-ah 

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah 

Here I am
