If I die in New York City
Bury me on the Battery
The pretty girls on Brooklyn ferry
Ask them all to weep for me
I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Because I lived my life
In New York town
Say it again
Oh, I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Because I lived my life
In New York town
Oh, I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Because I lived my life
In New York town
Said, I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Because I lived my life
In New York town
Because I lived my life
In New York town
FROM THE ALBUM: LITTLE WILD ONE - SEPTEMBER 9th, 2008
In a career that spans over fifteen years, Joan has proven to be an artistically restless yet consistently enthralling performer. In 2002, she cemented her reputation as a top tier soul singer with an incredible turn in the acclaimed documentary film 'Standing in the Shadows of Motown,' followed by a tour with legendary Motown backing band The Funk Brothers. In 2003, Osborne toured with the Dixie Chicks and then surprised and wowed audiences touring throughout America for two years as the lead singer for The Dead. In 2007, she graced the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. Osborne loves to sing and perform in many different genres, but she comes back to her soulful rock roots on 'Little Wild One,' her fall release that reunites her Grammy All-Star team of Rick Chertoff and Rob Hyman and Eric Bazilian of The Hooters. The team last worked together on Osborne's breakthrough, debut album 'Relish,' which sold five million copies worldwide and yielded the smash hit "One Of Us" as well as scoring six Grammy nominations.
