About The Song
“New Kid in Town” is a song by the Eagles from their 1976 album “Hotel California.” Originally written by Don Henley, Glenn Frey, and J.D. Souther, the track was released as the first single from the album and reached number one in the U.S. and number 20 in the UK. The song became the Eagles’ third chart-topping single, and it later earned a Grammy.
“New Kid in Town” by the Eagles is a song that carries two distinct meanings. On the surface, it reflects the experience of a band becoming famous and the subsequent changes in how they are treated by society. On a deeper level, the song is about the fleeting and fickle nature of love and romance, as explained by Don Henley himself in the liner notes to the band’s greatest hits album, “The Very Best Of”.

Lyrics
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 awhile
You’re lookin’ 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 ’til somebody new comes along
Where you’ve been lately? There’s a new kid in town
Everybody loves him
Don’t they?
Now 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
Everybody’s talking ’bout the new kid in town
Everybody’s walking like the new kid in town
There’s a new kid in town
I don’t wanna hear it
There’s a new kid in town
I don’t wanna 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
