hopalong andrew - i've been everywhere in new york city lyrics

Loading...

so i’m walking along under the noisy old manhattan bridge
when along comes a taxi – i hail it and hop on in
i say i’m going to manhattan, mac, and i settle down inside
he flips on his meter, and away we ride
i ask him if he’s seen a street so noisy and so gritty
and he says, “listen, bud, i’ve traveled every street in new york city”

i’ve been everywhere, man
i’ve been everywhere, man
‘cross the bronx up there, man
down through old times square, man
of travel i’ve had my share, man
i’ve been everywhere

and then the cabbie says to me, he says

i been to melrose, bellerose, rosedale, st. george
park slope, mount hope, riverdale, new dorp
bed+stuy, sty town, spuyten duyvil, chinatown
utopia, laconia, morrisania, astoria
greenpoint, hunts point, breezy point, willets point
tottenville, weeksville, brownsville – i’ve had my fill

i’ve been everywhere, man
i’ve been everywhere, man
‘cross the bronx up there, man
down through old times square, man
of travel i’ve had my share, man
i’ve been everywhere
i say “good for you, mister, but this is my stop,” and he says, “son…

i been to h+ll’s kitchen, richmond, gravesend, st. albans
high bridge, bay ridge, bushwick, and harlem
great k!lls, fresh k!lls, vinegar hill, sugar hill
castle+cobble+clinton hill, marble+murray+todt hill
alphabet city, little italy, red hook, farragut
midwood, ridgewood, neponsit ¬– fuggetaboudit

i’ve been everywhere, man
i’ve been everywhere, man
‘cross the bronx up there, man
down through old times square, man
of travel i’ve had my share, man
i’ve been everywhere

i say, “alright, already,” and he says, “alright yourself!”

i been to brooklyn heights, crown heights, prospect+dyk+r+jackson heights
morris park, crotona park, sunset+borough+ozone park
morningside, sunnyside, bayside+woodside+lower east side
brighton beach, silver beach, manhattan+plum+and+howard beach
coney island, governors island, randall’s+riker’s+city island
van nest, throgs neck, little neck – oh, what the heck

i’ve been everywhere, man
i’ve been everywhere, man
‘cross the bronx up there, man
down through old times square, man
of travel i’ve had my share, man
i’ve been everywhere
so i beg the guy, “c’mon, you passed my place 3 hours ago,” and he stops me right there and he says to me, he says, “furthermore…”

i been to dead horse bay, sheepshead bay, turtle bay, rockaway
fish bay, kips bay, pelham bay, steinway
bowery, port ivory, grammercy, fort greene
mott haven, mill basin, chelsea, canarsie
tribeca, bococa, nolita, nowadays
it’s dumbo+noho+soho+boho, fidi – oy vey

i’ve been everywhere, man
i’ve been everywhere, man
‘cross the bronx up there, man
down through old times square, man
as you can tell from the fare, man
now you’ve been everywhere
