Baby, baby with your hard luck story

You need a place to show to win

You'd still be waiting for me at the airport

While my ship was coming in



And N.Y. you're taking me dancing....

So "don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing



N.Y., N.Y., you keep me dancing, dancing

N.Y., N.Y., you keep me dancing, dancing



I'm so glad I saw your ad on every avenue

I'm so glad I saw your ad "in every place we drove"

It's a town so nice, they had to name it twice - N.Y., N.Y.

It's so hot, so hot, like an old soft shoe



"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing



N.Y., N.Y., you got me dancing, dancing

N.Y., N.Y., you got me dancing, dancing

N.Y., N.Y., you got me dancing, dancing



Dancing the night away 

Oh what a joy at the Barefoot Boy

"Night Trouble Lane's" the place to be

At 12 West the sound's the best

I guess you can come in your jeans

But I still prefer..getting dressed up

But I still prefer getting dressed up for Regine's





"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing

"Don't you beware, don't you beware"

Keep on dancing



N.Y., N.Y., you got me dancing, dancing
