I Guess the Lord Must Be in New York Songtext
von Harry Nilsson

I′ll say goodbye
To all my sorrow
And by tomorrow
I'll be on my way
I guess the Lord must be in New York City

I′m so tired
Of gettin' nowhere
Seein' my prayers
Goin′ unanswered
I guess the Lord must be in New York City

Well, here I am, Lord
Knockin′ at your back door, mm-mm-mm-mm
Ain't it wonderful to be
Where I′ve always wanted to be?
For the first time, I'll breathe free here in New York City


I′ll say goodbye
To all my sorrow
And by tomorrow
I'll be on my way
I guess the Lord must be in New York City

So tired
Of gettin′ nowhere
Seein' my prayers
Goin' unanswered
I guess the Lord must be in New York City

Well, here I am, Lord
Knockin′ at your back door, mm-mm-mm-mm
Ain′t it wonderful to be
Where I've always wanted to be?
For the first time, I′ll breathe free here in New York City

Uh, wah, wah, wah
Uh, wah, wah, wah
Uh, wah, wah, wah
