New Kid in Town

Eagles

There's talk on the street; 
it sounds so familiar.
Great expectations, 
everybody's watching you.
People you meet, 
they all seem to know you.
Even your old friends treat you 
like you're something new.

Johnny come lately, 
the new kid in town.
Everybody loves you, 
so don't let them down.

You look in her eyes; 
the music begins to play.
Hopeless romantics, 
here we go again.
But after a while 
you're looking the other way.
It's those restless hearts 
that never mend.

Johnny come lately, 
the new kid in town.
Will she still love you 
when you're not around?

There's so many things 
you should have told her,
But night after night 
you're willing to hold her, 
just hold her.
Tears on your shoulder.

There's talk on the street; 
it's there to remind you
It doesn't really matter 
which side you're on.
You're walking away 
and they're talking behind you.
They will never forget you 
till somebody new comes along.

Where you been lately? 
There's a new kid in town.
Everybody loves him, don't they?
And he's holding her, 
and you're still around. Oh, my, my.

There's a new kid in town, 
just another new kid in town.
Ooh, hoo. Everybody's talking 
'bout the new kid in town.
Ooh, hoo. Everybody's walking 
like the new kid in town.

There's a new kid in town. 
I don't want to hear it.
There's a new kid in town. 
I don't want to hear it.
There's a new kid in town. 
There's a new kid in town.
There's a new kid in town. 
Everybody's talking
There's a new kid in town. 
People started walking
There's a new kid in town.
There's a new kid in town.
