New York Melody Lyrics by Tom Mahnken

Some People Call Me Momma

0

[Verse 1]
Some people say "the world will end in fire"
Some people say "It'll end in nights"
I know the world is gonna end in Manhattan
When the buses stop running, walking [?]
Some people say "Hell is what you make it"
Some people say "Hell is whatever you fear"
Hell is a river, under deep movin' your sidewalk
In a form of a subway and a bottle of beer
[Chorus]
(Forever) That's how long it'll be
(Forever) When she comes after me
(Forever) Is a long, long time
In the city of mine
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Running out of [?]
Natural history is a thing of the past
Glass of concrete, make it end in [?]
Are the only things around me that are gonna last
[Chorus]
(Forever) I guess I can wait
(Forever) On a subway break
(Forever) Seems like a long, long time
In the city of mine
