You know I've been to New York
Uptown and down
And if you've been there
Then you've been around
So I couldn't care less
If you loved me or not,
Oh yes, but I almost forgot

How are the people back home?
I hear you got a place of your own,
Don't say you think that I've grown

I've grown used to the people
Tellin' me I'm pretty
And used to the nights
With the boys in the city,
And they couldn't care less
If I love them or not,
I've been looking real hard,
But I don't know for what

How are the people back home?
Tell them I got a show of my own
But sometimes I wished I never left home.

I've been to New York
Uptown and down
And if you been there
Then you've been around
So I couldn't care less
If you loved me or not
Oh yes, I guess
I care a whole lot

I've been to New York
Uptown and down
And if you've been there,
Then you've been around
And I couldn't care less
If you loved me or not,
Oh yes, I guess
I care a whole lot
