Bound For New York

Ripped out of a good dream and into the day
By the fuzz from the radio buzzing away
Another drag dragon with demands on my time
So it’s get in the car and down the mainline
I’m bound to fail
But remember we’ve heard this before
You’ve got that nailed
But today I’m just bound for New York
She wasn’t as handsome as Paris in France
Or majestic Vienna on New Years, all romance
She looked more like Dublin on St. Patrick’s Day
It was more black then green, just to make it risqué
And it was bound to fail
But remember you’ve said this before
You’ve got that nailed
But today I’m just bound for New York
The whole thing burned out just as quick as it came
When I finally returned to my bed that same day
And the truth is that I never even got her name
But the charm’s in the falling in love on a train
And I didn’t fail
Cause I’ve heard all your lines before
So you can exhale
Cause today I’m just bound for New York
