Garland Jeffreys Keep On Trying Lyrics

I'm just a New York City kid
And I'm a' lookin' for love
Standin' out here on the street
Streelight up above
I'm stranded in the night
Just as clear as Black and White
Gotta work it if you wanna' do it right

You gotta' keep on tryin' baby
Keep on tryin'
Keep on tryin' baby
Keep on tryin' Ooooo

I'm just a hometown boy makes good
And I'm lookin' for joy Keep tryin' the best I could
Like any ordinary city boy
Standin' in the middle of the street
Dead tired on my feet
Pretty girl I'd love to meet

You gotta' keep on tryin' baby
Keep on tryin'
Keep on tryin' baby
Keep on tryin' Ooooo

But I don't wanna hustle for love
No I don't wanna hustle for love
I don't wanna' hustle for love
