Take Manhattan
Well she started out working for an Illinois assembly line Not really what she wanted Just dealing with the feeling when you're feeling like you wish it was fine You just don't talk about it And along came an offer from the city of steel They were stranded at the airport she could barely believe he was real So she said
Make it happen take me to Manhattan If you like LA that's cool Or you could slip me right on down the Mississippi I'd go anywhere with you
Well, they met up on the river in the middle of the summertime He was from out on the coast And ever since he said he'd never stop until they got it right It's what they wanted the most He had been everywhere and she'd been alone They were just looking for a place to call home
So he said How about Manhattan we can make it happen I'll do California too I know it's iffy but how about the Mississippi Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I'd go anywhere with you
Any old town will do I could die in the flyover zone with you
Then they started their first argument And the fighting never stopped It's just the same old story All the boys and girls who never figure one another out Then all the tears started pouring Then the map came off the wall She started marking it with a red pen
Then she said Well, take Manhattan where anything can happen You take California too Forever after with or without laughter We got better things to do Take Manhattan where anything can happen You take California too Take the planet you can fucking have it Look out cause she's coming for you
