New Yorker in Exile

He's living high out here in the Southland
Hey, did you know I was your biggest fan?
Keeping up to par in the Heartland
But no one ever took him by the hand

He was expelled from school as a young boy
They said he couldn't get along, he was actin' grand
Banished from the city in the fall of the year
To find the West was where he'd make his stand

New Yorker in exile
Tell me, do you miss your friends?
Manhattan New Yorker in exile
Unitеd troopers band

Now he's captured by thе sign up in Hollywood (Hollywood)
Willing to lay his life on the line
He's gonna make it big like he said he would
And maybe he will be the first of his kind

Got a code, bought a car, now it seems so strange
Never knew that he would settle here
Since he came out West, his music's changed
Delineated for another year

He's a New Yorker in exile
Tell me, do you miss your friends?

Hey, yeah
