Start spreading the news I’m leaving today I want to be a part of it New york, new york
These vegabond shoes Are longing to stray Right through the very heart of it New york, new york
Bridge 1: I wanna wake up in the city That doesn’t sleep And find I’m king of the hill Top of the heap
This 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
Bridge 2: New york, new york I wanna wake up in the city That never sleeps And find I’m a number one, Top of the list, King of the hill, a number one...

And if I can make it there, I’m gonna make it anywhere It’s up to you, New york, new yoooooooooork... New yooork.
