Start spreading the news
I'm leaving 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 doesn't sleep
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'm gonna make a brand new start of it
In old New York
And... If I can make it there,
I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you,
New York, New Yoooooooooork...
New Yooork.
