Lyrics:

Start spreading the news, I’m leaving today

I want to be a part of it - new york, new york

These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray

Right through the very heart of it - new york, new york



I wanna wake up in a city, that doesn’t sleep

And find I’m king of the hill - top of the heap



These 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



New york, new york

I want to wake up in a city, that never sleeps

And find I’m a number one top of the list, king of the hill

A number one



These little town blues, are melting away

I’m gonna make a brand new start of it - in old new york

And if I can make it there, I’m gonna make it anywhere



It up to you - new york new york



New york
