Chords
[Verse 1]
C5 My girl got a minimum
Keep it stuck right there 'til the number comes
Leave a smooth operator lookin' like a bum
My girl's got a city to run
Got the key to the kingdom where the money's from
Never seen the color yellow, never seen the sun
And he thinks I'm the negative one
[Chorus]
C5 Flags flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp, New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock
Flags flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp, New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock
[Verse 2]
C5 My girl's got a little schtick
Keep you cooped up in the kitchen while you feed the kid
Keep you waitinâ in the winter while the taxi ticks
My girl got a limousine
Got a full time job just to keep it clean
Got a speaker in the trunk, you know it weighs a ton
You think Iâm the negative one
[Chorus]
C5 Flags flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp, New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock
Flags flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp, New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock
[Interlude]
C5 New Dorp, New York
New Dorp, New York
[Bridge]
C5 Late nights and black Israelites
White women singing under diner lights
Baseball bats that never hit home runs
Late nights and black Israelites
White women singing under diner lights
Baseball bats that never hit home runs
I got a baseball bat, never hit home runs
[Verse 3]
C5 My girl got a minimum
Keep it stuck right there 'til the number comes
Leave a smooth operator lookin' like a bum
My girl's got a city to run
Got the key to the kingdom where the money's from
Never seen the color yellow, never seen the sun
[Interlude]
C5 New Dorp, New York
New Dorp, New York
Flags flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp, New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock
Flags flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp, New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock
[Verse 4]
C5 My girl's got a little schtick
Keep it cooking in the kitchen, while feeding the kid
Keep you waiting in the window while the time just ticks
My girl got a limousine, got a full time job just to keep it clean
Got the speakers in the trunk, know the ways to talk
[Outro]
My girl's got C5a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
