NOO YAWK NOO YAWK

Cartoon ©Copyright 2001 by Don Hunt Fugetabodit… So typically Noo Yawk
It’s just the way some Noo Yawkers talk

Chickkee, The Coppers… A Noo Yawk expression
It’s just their way to escape apprehension

You Kiddin or What…? A Noo Yawk motif
A Noo Yawkers way to express disbelief

Git Addu Here… A warning to some
When you hear it, you know where it’s from

The Water’s Burling… Don’t get boint
Cooking in Hell’s Kitchen, or some other hot jernt

Ringalevio… Noo Yawk kids compete
A fun kind of game they play in the street

B.M.T., I.R.T. Third Avenue El
The systems of subways, in Noo Yawk excel

The Show Must Go On… Kernd on Broadway
No one knows why, it’s said to this day

America’s melting pot, known for its crowds
Of its diversity, Noo Yawkers can be proud

Noo Yawk Noo Yawk, so Time Square-able
There’s no place like it… that’s quite compare-able
