[Eb] It's my city, I'm the king [G] of New York
I'm a gold [A] watch with a kindred swirl and my very own bed and the [Ebm] indoor play
A barber shop haircut that [Bb] Gorsha Porter, a regular beat for the star reporter
[G] I am [C] Scrape Honk, [F] she's the king of New York

Though [F] I'm cracked out
[Bb] I ain't [Eb] tapped out
I'm [D] a king, [G]
friends may flee
Let [F] a pitcher snap
One [Eb] pitcher, you're the [G] king
Praise the king
