Am
I've a constant ache in the morning light
          G                     C
It's on account of the night before
     Am
Some Park Lane lady in a shady bar
         G                   C
Took a fancy to the watch I wore

    E                             D
But I can still remember how she laughed at me
       G                      C
As I spun around and hit the bed
          Am
She said thank you honey, forget about the money
       G           E/G#    Am
This pretty watch'll do instead

Chorus:
E                              F
City living woman, you're so static
 G                                 C
Matching your men with a hook and eye
           E                                  F  Cm/G
If you're gonna spend the summer in New York City
      C    F  F# C/G               G#         Am
Them women oh oh oh they're gonna slice your pie

E                                 F
Said you're so static, baby I've had it
G                    C
Rolling in a yellow cab
E                                      F     Cm/G
Downtown hustlers trying to pull some muscle
         C         F  F# C/G          G        C
If they catch you, oh oh oh it could turn out bad

It's a show me what you want, I'll show you what I've got
I can show you a real good time
She's a friend indeed of a friend in need
But you'll be sorry when she leaves you crying

Chorus

Said you're so static, baby I've had it
Rolling in a yellow cab
Downtown hustlers trying to pull some muscle
If they catch you, oh oh oh it could turn out bad
