Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York
This bag of orange shoes
I'm 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
There's more town blues
I'm melting away
I'll make a brand
New start of it
And oh, 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 doesn't sleep
And find I'm number one
Top of the list
King of the hill
And I'm the one
And I'm the one
This country's
The best
These more town blues
Are melting away
I think I'm gonna
Make a brand
New start of it
And oh, New York
Aahhahhaaheah
If I can make it there
I know, I know I'll make it
I'm gonna make it anywhere
Come on, come to New York
New York
New York
