New York Town
[Verse 1: Carson McKee]
I wasn't ready for New York Town
Wrinkled suit in the underground
Doe-eyed boy with his head hung down
I wasn't ready for New York Town

[Verse 2: McKee]
I wasn't built for no assembly line
Stare at a screen and clock my time
It's a temple full of money, no God in sight
I wasn't built for no assembly line

[Chorus 1: McKee & Josh Turner]
Well, workin' and a-pickin' and a-singin' ain't gotten me far yet
I ain't left this bar yet and it's quarter to two
And I'm wondering if I ever should've even left Charlotte
Don't matter how far I get or what I do

[Verse 3: McKee]
And I don't believe in no dating scene
See which girls will swipe on me
And lie about what I like on TV
I don't believe in no dating scene
[Verse 4: McKee]
I wasn't raised on no fair-weather friends
Who disappear till we dance again
Then whiskey till we got the bends
I wasn't raised on no fair-weather friends

[Chorus 2: McKee & Turner]
Well, workin' and a-pickin' and a-singin' ain't gotten me far yet
I ain't left this bar yet and it's quarter to three
I'm wondering if I ever should've even left Charlotte
I sure ain't no star yet; hell, maybe it's me

[Verse 5: McKee]
I wasn't ready for New York Town
So hand me down my homemade crown
We'll drink a round to this part-time king and full-time clown
I'll have the last laugh in New York Town

[Chorus 3: McKee & Turner]
Well, workin' and a-pickin' and a-singin' ain't gotten me far yet
I ain't left this bar yet and it's quarter to four
But it's no time now to run on back to Charlotte
I won't sell my guitar yet 'cause maybe there's more
