a tear drop

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 wanna wake up in a city

  That doesn'tr 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 heap,

  King of the hill,

  A-number-one...

  These little town blues 

  Oh they're melting away

  I'm gonna make

  A brand new start of it

  In old New York

  A-a-a-nd if I can make it there,

  I'm gonna make it anywhere

  It's up to you,

  New York, New York...

  New York...
