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 Oh, step around the 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 Oh, little town blues Are melting a way 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 a way I'm gonna make a brand-new start of it In old New York And... if I can make it there, oh, I'm gonna make it anywhere Come on, come true, New York, New York
