New York City, oh what a town I can't wait to get my feet on your ground I been around a time or two and I've found Ain't nothing like the likes of you You got your big tall buildings They scrape the sky Way up yonder where the eagles fly Boy you really made me open up my eyes And all I want to see is you
If you walk down on Broadway and 42nd Avenue Ain't no telling who you'll see And ain't no tellin' what they'll do You've got the prettiest women I've ever seen Checkered cabs and long limousines The hustle and bustle is music to me Buddy won't you play me some more Play some more now
Oh those moonlight nights in Manhattan With my New York City girl That nail I hang my hat on Is the best there is all over this world
Oh New York City, oh what a town I can't wait to get my feet on your ground I been around a time or two and I've found Ain't nothing like the likes of you You got your big tall buildings They scrape the sky Way up yonder where the eagles fly Boy you really made me open up my eyes And all I want to see is you.
