Lyrics:

Start spreadin' the news, i'm leavin' 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 want to wake up, in a city that never sleeps
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'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!!!
