[Verse 1]
Standing on the corner, just me and Yoko Ono
We was waiting for Jerry to land
Up come a man with a guitar in his hand
Singing, "Have a marijuana if you can"
His name was David Peel, we found that he was real
He sang, "The Pope Smokes Dope Everyday"
Up come a police man shoved us up the street
Singin', "Power to the People today!"
[Chorus]
New York City
New York City
New York City
Qué pasa New York?
Qué pasa New York?
Hey, hey
[Verse 2]
Well down to Max's City
Put down the nitty gritty with the Elephants Memory Band
Laid something down as the news spread around
About the Plastic Ono Elephants Memory Band!
We played some funky boogie and laid some "Tutti Frutti"
Singing, "Long Tall Sally's A man"
Up come a preacher man trying to be a teacher
Singing, "God's a red herring in drag!"
Standing on the corner, just me and Yoko Ono
We was waiting for Jerry to land
Up come a man with a guitar in his hand
Singing, "Have a marijuana if you can"
His name was David Peel, we found that he was real
He sang, "The Pope Smokes Dope Everyday"
Up come a police man shoved us up the street
Singin', "Power to the People today!"
[Chorus]
New York City
New York City
New York City
Qué pasa New York?
Qué pasa New York?
Hey, hey

Put down the nitty gritty with the Elephants Memory Band

Up come a preacher man trying to be a teacher
