A "yankee" is actually referring to what the Japanese refer to as "yankii". They're sort of street punks, known for being a bit rough around the edges, and largely unconcerned with the opinions of others.

Baby, slipping out of the tree-lined streets, won't you leave with me
To the city, hand in hand?
At any rate, it's not much, but
Isn't this weather great?
Sunday, slipping through the ticket check, I'm in a hurry for some reason
Even though I've got no special plans, until the train
Leaves the platform
I'm just gonna kinda stand here, so let's talk a little
I don't mess around with good or bad, they're all the same to me
They're definitely just waiting for us to make a choice
Living in a city
There's not really anything of importance here
But on the other hand, it's definitely good enough for me
My life in the city
I wonder what will happen tomorrow?
Or will it be the same as today?
It doesn't matter, my life in the city
Bon jour, I pass by the face of an unconcerned Lady
A yankee with free time to spare
The incoherent ways of the city
Hey, what do you want to do in the city now?
I have no idea whatsoever
Everything is right here, all the time, but yet there's nothing at all
Living in a city
There are all sorts of necessities
That should be good enough for you
My life in the city
I wonder what you're thinking right now?
Maybe the same thing that I am?
It would be great if you were, it would be great if you were
Living in a city
Today's just another boring day
As I get a premonition that
Something somewhere is about to begin
We just keep on living our lives today too
Living in a city
There's not really anything of importance here
But on the other hand, it's definitely good enough for me
my life in the city
Isn't there just something about this place?
Or then agian, isn't there?
It doesn't matter, my life in the city
Living in a city
my life in the city
Living in the city
my life in the city
Living in a city
my life in the city
