Start spreadin' the news, I'm leavin' today

I want to be a part of it

New York, New York

These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray

Right through the very heart of it

New York, New York


I want to wake up, in a city that never sleeps

And find I'm king of the hill

Top of the heap


These little town blues, are melting away

I'll make a brand new start of it

In old New York

If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere

It's up to you, New York..New York


New York... New York

I want to wake up, in a city that never sleeps

And find I'm A number one, top of the list

King of the hill, A number one....


These little town blues, are melting away

I'll make a brand new start of it

In old New York

If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere

It's up to you, New York... New York New York!!!
