I Took The L

from Live in New York (2022) by John Roseboro

/

lyrics

John: This is a song about trains in New York.

I LOVE THE Q COS
I LOVE THE VEIW OF
MANHATTAN BRIDGE
IMMA BE RICH. IMMA HAVE MONEY TOO

John: It's really more of an affirmation.

I TOOK THE G TO HOYT-SCHEMERHORN
AND NOW MY PHONE JUST DIED
I KNOW MY WAY BACK HOME
IMMA BE RICH. IMMA HAVE MONEY TOO

John: That's the whole song ya know, because like, I'm going to be rich in relationships, but I'm gonna have money. Watch.

I LOVE THE Q COS
I LOVE THE VEIW OF
MANHATTAN BRIDGE
IMMA BE RICH. IMMA HAVE MONEY TOO

John: Songs called I took the L

I TOOK THE L
TO BEDFORD AVE
SAW MADDIE CUNNINGHAM
THAT COULD BE ME AND YOU
IMMA BE RICH...

John: Can you just name a train?
Audience: A
John: What does the A train go?
Audience: Washington Heights

I TAKE THE A TO WASHINGTON HEIGHTS

John: Honestly, I really do take my bike everywhere

IMMA BE RICH IMMA HAVE MONEY TOO

John: Alright. Thank you. Now for the best band in the world.
