I'm tired, so tired I can hardly stand I can't breathe in the air in this city tonight It's taken everything I had to give And now, I just want to get out of here But I won't be sorry if you won't be And I don't want your pity or sympathy But for forty five dollars I can make it You wait and see He came from miami to start out again I hear that he's back with his mother ill He told me he loved me and he wanted my child But you know people change their minds But I won't be sorry if you won't be And I don't want your pity or sympathy But with forty five dollars I can make it You wait and see But I won't be sorry if you won't be And I don't want your pity or your sympathy But with forty five dollars I can make it You wait and see It isn't as if I was just anybody On broadway I danced for that senator They know me in london and they know me in paris I'm only talking because you look like you needed a friend But I won't sorry if you won't be And I don't want your pity or your sympathy But with forty five dollars I'm halfway to miami
