    In the early 1980's, Times Square was dirty and decadent. Hookers and drug dealers, porn theaters and hustlers all congregated. It was dirty and dangerous and unlike anywhere else in the world. It was uniquely New York. It was beautiful.

    Lyrics
    Girls of NYC
    The scent it still lingers
    The sweet smell of the streets
    It was putrid, it was porn
    It was thick enough to eat
    The stale pretzels from the vendors
    Designed for tunnel boys
    Paid for by their parents
    Saved for Christmas toys
    Hurry up; hurry up, hurry up I said
    Hurry up; hurry up, my friend
    CHORUS
    The girls from New York City
    Are all from another place
    They're from Brooklyn
    They're from queens
    And often overseas
    The girls from New York City
    Are imbedded in my brain
    The girls from New York City
    Are always glad you came

    The flashing sign was neon
    The door was up the stairs
    I was shivering I was shaking
    A big ticket taker glared
    The room was almost empty
    My age I had to lie
    Her perfume and accent heavy
    As heavy as her thighs

    Hurry up; Hurry up, baby hurry up
    Hurry up; hurry up, she said

    The girls from New York City
    Are all from another place
    They're from Brooklyn
    They're from queens
    And often overseas
    The girls from New York City
    Are imbedded in my brain
    The girls from New York City
    Are always glad you came

    Take a walk, take a walk, baby take a walk
    Take a walk; take a walk on the wild side
    Lou Reed says take a walk on the wild side

    Im passing by the building
    There's now an empty space
    A hall from Hollywoods being built to take its place
    And my kids have no idea
    About the story that unfolded here
    And if they ever found out
    I wonder if they could
    See their father on his back with a foreign girl
    In this hall from Holly Wood
