New Kind Of Neighborhood Lyrics & Chords By Jonathan Richman And The Modern Lovers

Hey!
Hey!
Well your friends they came from out of town
It was a new kind of neighborhood
And the neighbors stared but they didn’t frown
New kind of neighborhood, new kind of neighborhood

Well your friends were dancing on the lawn
It was a new kind of neighborhood
And no one stared like something’s wrong
New kind of neighborhood, oh-wow-o, new kind of neighborhood

Well wang-ady-dang-a-diggy, dang-ady-danga diggy
New kind of neighborhood
Wang-ady-dang-a-diggy, dang-ady-danga diggy
New kind of neighborhood, oh-wow-o, new kind of neighborhood

[Start of the spoken part]
-- Excuse me sir, could you tell me where this new neighborhood is that I’ve heard about?
-- Yeah, it’s right up you go up there, there's a hill, right there
-- Yeah Yeah
-- Well you go up the path, there’s two paths
-- Oh really
-- And it’s the second one, you’ll find it
-- OK
[End of spoken part]

Well your friends they came from out of town
It was a new kind of neighborhood
And the neighbors stared but they didn’t frown
New kind of neighborhood, oh-oh-oh, new kind of neighborhood

Well now your friends were dancing on the lawn
It was a new kind of neighborhood
And no one acts like something’s wrong
New kind of neighborhood, wow-wow-wow, new kind of neighborhood

Well wang-ady-dang-a-diggy, dang-ady-danga diggy
New kind of neighborhood
Wang-ady-dang-a-diggy, dang-ady-danga diggy
New kind of neighborhood, oh-wow-o, new kind of neighborhood

[Start of spoken part]
-- Buddy, you know, could you help me one more time cause I missed it the first time, I just misunderstood. I saw the second path but it didn’t lead where I wanted to go.
-- I know what you did. Look for the one with the little flags up there, they got little car flag
-- Ok, I’ll find it now.
[End of spoken part].

Well now your friends were dancing on the lawn
It was a new kind of neighborhood
And no one looks like something’s wrong
Cut it's a new kind of neighborhood, oh-oh-o, new kind of neighborhood
