Lyrics
|
I've
|
seen
|
the
|
lights
|
go
|
out
|
on
|
Broadway
|
I
|
saw
|
The
|
Empire
|
State
|
laid
|
low
|
And
|
life
|
went
|
on
|
beyond
|
the
|
Palisades
|
They
|
all
|
bought
|
Cadillacs
|
And
|
left
|
there
|
long
|
ago
|
We
|
held
|
a
|
concert
|
out
|
in
|
Brooklyn
|
To
|
watch
|
the
|
island
|
|
Lyrics
|
bridges
|
blow
|
They
|
turned
|
our
|
power
|
down
|
And
|
drove
|
us
|
underground
|
But
|
we
|
went
|
right
|
on
|
with
|
the
|
show
|
Oh,
|
oh,
|
oh
|
I've
|
seen
|
the
|
lights
|
go
|
out
|
on
|
Broadway
|
I
|
saw
|
the
|
ruins
|
at
|
my
|
feet
|
You
|
know
|
we
|
almost
|
didn't
|
|
Lyrics
|
notice
|
it
|
We'd
|
see
|
it
|
all
|
the
|
time
|
on
|
42nd
|
street
|
They
|
burned
|
the
|
churches
|
up
|
in
|
Harlem
|
Like
|
in
|
that
|
Spanish
|
Civil
|
War
|
The
|
flames
|
were
|
everywhere
|
But
|
no
|
one
|
really
|
cared
|
It
|
always
|
burned
|
up
|
there
|
before
|
Oh,
|
oh,
|
oh
|
|
Lyrics
|
I've
|
seen
|
the
|
rats
|
lie
|
down
|
on
|
Broadway
|
Oh,
|
I
|
watched
|
the
|
mighty
|
skyline
|
fall
|
The
|
boats
|
were
|
waiting
|
at
|
The
|
Battery
|
The
|
union
|
went
|
on
|
strike
|
They
|
never
|
sailed
|
at
|
all
|
They
|
sent
|
a
|
carrier
|
out
|
from
|
Norfolk
|
And
|
picked
|
|
Lyrics
|
the
|
Yankees
|
up
|
for
|
free
|
They
|
said
|
that
|
Queens
|
could
|
stay
|
They
|
blew
|
The
|
Bronx
|
away
|
And
|
sank
|
Manhattan
|
out
|
at
|
sea,
|
oh
|
Oh,
|
oh,
|
oh
|
You
|
know
|
those
|
lights
|
were
|
bright
|
on
|
Broadway
|
But
|
that
|
was
|
so
|
many
|
years
|
ago
|
|
Lyrics
|
Before
|
we
|
all
|
lived
|
here
|
in
|
Florida
|
Before
|
the
|
Mafia
|
took
|
over
|
Mexico
|
There
|
are
|
not
|
many
|
who
|
remember
|
They
|
say
|
a
|
handful
|
still
|
survive
|
To
|
tell
|
the
|
world
|
about
|
The
|
way
|
the
|
lights
|
went
|
out
|
And
|
keep
|
the
|
memory
|
alive
|
|
