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 want to 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 any---where
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 King a number one Top of the list
King of the hill And number one
These little town blues Are melting away
I gonna make a brand new start of it In old New York
And if I can make it there I'm gonna make it any------where
It's up to you New York, New York New York
