Ginger - Mother City [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Well, I recognized every street that I'd seen in the movies
I spent 24 hours on my feet, just walking around
And my heart never beat so fast in all the years I'd been waiting

Because heaven only knows, I never felt so close
I was 6 years old when I saw Spiderman
Crouched down on a garbage can

New York City, she's my rock n roll
And she won't take back a cent I owe
A mom and dad to this restless soul
You made me second to none
New York, the mother, adopts another wandering son

I was the only kid in school to find his own education
The kind The Dolls, Ramones and Kiss laid down
So I'll wipe that tear and watch the dust start clearing on West St

Because heaven only know, I never felt so close
I was 9 years old when they shot James Caan
Over by the toll-booth stand

New York City, she's my rock n roll
And she won't take back a cent I owe
A mom and dad to this restless soul
You made me second to none
New York, the mother, adopts another wandering son

Darling, you mean more to me that I thought you'd be
Hey darling, you're the guts I need to turn off TV

36 years old when they tried to beat you down
Who do they think that they're messing around?

New York City, she's my rock n roll
And she won't take back a cent I owe
A mom and dad to this restless soul
You made me second to none
New York, the mother, adopts another wandering son
