She came to me shortly after Christmas
                             
Said she hated sport & New Year's Eve
                                    
But the [bad word] doesn't wait [bad word] in season
                          
& what we had feared was now believed
                                 
She said she'd [bad word] Monday mornin'
                          
Catch a plane if I'd split the fare
                                     
She said she had friends in New York City
                              
She'd look them up & have the baby there

                              
And now she's alone in New York City
                        
Livin' like Lord I wonder how
                          
An angel in [bad word] in New York City
                    
I can't think about that now

                             
Honey, will you tell him Bible stories
                           
& give him all the love I never could?
                                      
But never tell him too much about his daddy
                                 
'Cause there's not much to say that's good
                                    
He'll have to learn it all from his mother
                    
How to count & say his ABC's
                                       
& when you teach him prayers to say at bedtime
                                  
Leave out "God bless daddy," won't you please?

                                
And now they're alone in New York City
                        
Livin' like Lord I wonder how
                          
2 angels in [bad word] in New York City
                    
I can't think about that now
                    
I can't think about that now
