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 that city
That never sleeps
To find I'm king of the hill
Top of the heap
These little town blues
Are melting away
I'm gonna 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 wanna wake up in that city
That never sleeps
To find I'm a number one
Top of the list
King of the hill, a number one
These are little town blues
They have all melted away
I am about to make a brand new start of it
In old new york
And, if I can make it there
I'm gonna make it anywhere
Come on, come through
New york, new york
