When you're a boy some days are tough lying on your bed playing punk rock and stuff Home is a boot camp you gotta escape Wanna go and wander in the ticker-tape You feel the deal is real You're a New York City boy So young, so run into New York City
New York City boy you'll never have a bored day 'cause you're a New York City boy where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway
The street is amazing the hoochies unreal Check out all the hardware at the latest deal Hear a song That's the bomb! If you don't get that mix it's gone eighty-six You feel the deal is real You're in New York City
New York City Boy you'll never have a bored day 'cause you're a New York City boy where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway New York City boy This is your reward day 'cause you're a New York City boy where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway
Then when the evening falls you can return its calls
You feel the deal is real You're a New York City boy So young, so run into New York City
