Boy, partly this is one of these. Big strapping kid-out, sick fame and door fortune, And New York was ready for him. Lacing the country, Yoko, will not die out for quite a few centuries to come.
He just emerged from the port terminal and was looking around, big-eyed and confused, bewildered by the intensity of it all. When a girl came up to him. Hello there. Waiting for someone? Oh, you speak to me, Miss?
That's who I was talking to, handsome. I asked you, are you waiting for someone? Oh, no, no, no. That is, I mean, I just got here, mister. Came in from Montana on the jet plane there.
Oh, you got friends here? Oh, I'm afraid of don't miss. I just sort of decided to up and come to the city and sort of try my luck at it. Well, maybe I can help you.
I sort of like you. You do. Mm-hmm. You know, something in me wants to help strangers, too. Fish on the ropes. And I've got free time now. I'd like to well spend it with you.
Oh, you're so kind, you think so? Oh, yes, yes. You're a pretty girl I've ever seen. You're smiling, your eyes, you're good. I can tell you you're warm and sweet. It's good of you to come to talk to me like this to stand so close to me.
