VERSE1
Well Ive all sorts of books
But I dont even look at a one.
They sit on their shelves
Reading themselves one by one
And I dont know why I should
Try to find a place of my own
When I cant understand
The emotions of living alone
 
VERSE2
Cynthias grown but I think
That shes known all along
That Im much too old thats
Why Ive told her so long
But with each day I find
Im changing my mind my
Resistance keeps breaking down
 
CHORUS
And it wont be much more bfore I need her around
And some say Detroit is a tough town
But they make a pretty good car
And Ive thought of leaving when Im feeling down
But New York is so very far
And New York is not where you are
 
VERSE3
Michigans nice except for
The ice in the winter time
It hangs on the roads
And weighs down the loads especially mine
And Id like to be happy and free
with a smile instead of frown
I used to think that New York
would turn that around
