Heard the call and I packed it all
And I'm on the road again
You can help to ease my low
And I will be your friendBut the morning brings the sunlight
And the sunlight brings my friend
So I say goodbye to lonely I want L.A. backOne night stand in New York City
Lights are bright and the girls are pretty
Held her heart and I held her hand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night standOklahoma, Arizona
Wish I knew for sure
Came to town and I held my ground
That's what I came hear forBut the voices in the distance
And their calling me back home
I'll be leaving in the morning
Guess my fate is not my ownOne night stand in New York City
Lights are bright and the girls are pretty
Held her heart and I held her hand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night standGypsy queens and magazines
Living on the land
Don't make ties and don't tell lies
Do the best you canBut of every place I've been to
And of every place I've seen
I feel lonesome among strangers
I feel naked without stringsOne night stand in New York City
Lights are bright and the girls are pretty
Held her heart and I held her hand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night stand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night stand
