I'm tired, so tired i can hardly stand
i can't breath in the air in this city tonight
it's taken everything i had to give
and now, i just want to get out of here
But i won't be sorry if you won't be
and i don't want your pity or sympathy
but for forty five dollars i can make it
you wait and see
He came from miami to start out again
i hear that he's back with his mother ill
he told me he loved me and he wanted my child
but you know people change their minds
But i won't sorry if you won't be
and i don't want your pity or sympathy
but with forty five dollars i can make it
you wait and see
But i won't sorry if you won't be
and i don't want your pity or your sympathy
but with forty five dollars i can make it
you wait and see
It isn't as if i was just anybody
on broadway i danced for that senator
they know me in london and they know me in paris
i'm only talking because you look like you needed a friend
But i won't sorry if you won't be
and i don't want your pity or your sympathy
but with forty five dollars i'm halfway
to miami
