Start spreading the news
I´m leaving today
I wanna 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´t sleep
And find I´m king of the hill
Top of the heap

Chorus :
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 here
I´ll make it anywhere
It´s up to you
New York, New York

I wanna 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

Chorus :
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 here
I´ll make it anywhere
It´s up to you
New York, New York
