Ronnie McDowell - In A New York Minute (1985)

Ever since I’ve known ya you’ve belonged to someone else
So we’ve never talked about romance
But I think it’s time I told you the way I’ve always felt
And what I’d do if I got the chance

I’d make love to you in a New York minute and take my Texas time doing it
I’d do you every way but wrong
I’d make love to you in a New York minute and take my Texas time doing it
I’d prove to you that in my arms is where you belong

Don’t misunderstand me I wouldn’t steal you from your man
But if he’s ever fool enough to leave
Well you know how to reach me and you know where I am
And you know what I’d do if you were free

I’d make love to you in a New York minute and take my Texas time doing it
I’d do you every way but wrong
I’d make love to you in a New York minute and take my Texas time doing it
I’d prove to you that in my arms is where you belong

I’d make love to you in a New York minute and take my Texas time doing it
I’d do you every way but wrong
I’d make love to you in a New York minute and take my Texas time doing it
I’d prove to you that in my arms is where you belong

Expertise

I can answer just about any question about lyrics or the artists who recorded the songs--80s and 90s country especially. I don't watch many new videos, but the older the video question, the more likely I am to be able to answer it.

Experience

I've been a country music fan for all of my 20+ years! I somehow have a knack for being able to remember all the words to all the songs (and who sang them for the most part) even though I can't carry a tune to save my life!

Education/Credentials
Juris Doctor. (So if I can't remember an answer off the top of my head, I have the research skills to figure it out!)
