Everything that you dont own,

You make love like a skinned cat
Crawlin across a highway
Tryin to git to the other side,
Dont know why you just gotta try
Ah, when that devil

Gonna go back home, so long,
Just want to get some sun on my shoulder
And get a bit of sand in my shoes
I love you new york city, but I see that sun shinin
And I dont want to stay here no more
Oh, what you gonna do
