But ya miss that somethin' what I can say
Only New York ladies make me ache that way
Ooh, Julie from gay Paris

Back to 13th Street and Avenue B
And the New York lady waitin' there for me
Oh, Yoko home in Tokyo

Back to the big city, that's the home I know
And back to the girl there that I love so

Headed homeward bound where my favorite is found
