A pair of new shoes with matchin' laces A permanent box at Sheepshead Races A porcelain tub with boilin' water A Saturday night with the Mayor's daughter
Look at me! I'm the King of New York! Suddenly, I'm respectable Starin' right atcha Lousy with stature Knobbin' with all the muckety-mucks Start blowin' my dough And goin' deluxe And there I be Ain't I pretty? Its my city I'm the King of New York
A courderoy suit with fitted knickers A mezanine seat to see the flickers Havana cigars that cost a quarter An editor's desk for the star reporter!
Tip your hat! He's the King of New York! (How 'bout that, I'm the King of New York) In no time flat He'll be coverin' Brooklyn to Trenton Our man Denton Makin' a headline out of a hunch Protectin' the weak And payin' for lunch When I'm at bat Strong men tumble Proud men humble He's (I'm) the King of New York
Either we be dead or dreamin' Cuz look at that pape with my face beamin' Tomorrow they may wrap fishes in it But I was a star for one whole minute!
Starting now! I'm the King of New York (Ain't ya heard?I'm the King of New York) Holy cow! Its a miracle Pullitzer's cryin' Weasel, he's dyin'!
Like sparks, we're shootin' bright as the sun! I'm one highfalutin' son of a gun! Don't ask me how Fortune found me Fame just crowned me I'm the King of New York!
Look and see! Once a piker Now a striker! I'm the King of New York!
Victory Front page story Guts and glory I'm the King of New York!
