Brooklyn Blues

See I flew in from the West Coast Just the other day Yes, I flew in from the West Coast And we circled J.F.K. The movie ended and I pulled up the shade Looked out the window while the Muzak played But in my head I'm singin' Singin' the Brooklyn Blues, oh, yeah When you're growin' up in Brooklyn The Bridge is like a friend Said when you're growin' up in Brooklyn That Bridge is sure your friend Because that river looks a hundred miles wide When all your dreams are on the other side And that can start you singin' Singin' the Brooklyn Blues, oh, yeah Now I've got myself some money A mansion in Bel-aire Yes, I've spent a lot of money And I've been most everywhere But still there's somethin' missin' I've got to find A part of me I must have left behind That makes a guy start feelin' Feelin' those Brooklyn Blues, my my I've sung love songs to a princess More than once or twice I've sung rock 'n' roll in Paris Jazz in paradise But there's a song of mine I couldn't have sung A tune I started back when I was young Now I've come home to finish Finish my Brooklyn Blues, my Brooklyn Blues
