The Only Living Boy In New York
by Paul Simon
(c) 1969 Paul Simon (BMI)

Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know your part'll go fine.
Fly down to Mexico.
Da-n-da-da-n-da-n-da-da and here I am,
The only living boy in New York.

I get the news I need on the weather report.
I can gather all the news I need on the weather report.
Hey, I've got nothing to do today but smile.
Da-n-do-da-n-do-da-n-do and here I am
The only living boy in New York

Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,
And we don't know here.
(Ahhh. . . here I am)

Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,
And we don't know here.

Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know you've been eager to fly now.
Hey let your honesty shine, shine, shine
Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da
Like it shines on me
The only living boy in New York,
The only living boy in New York.

(Ahhh. . . here I am)
(Ahhh. . . here I am)
