Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
Right to the very heart of it
New York
I want to wake up in a city that doesn't sleep
And find that I'm king of the hill
Top of the heap
My little town blues
They're melting away
I'm going to make a brand new start of it
In New York
I want to wake up in a city that doesn't sleep
And find that I'm king of the hill
Top of the list
Head of the heap
King of the hill
I want to be a part of it
I want to be a part of it
I want to be a part of it
I want to be a part of it
Well if I can make it there
I'm going to make it anywhere
It's up to you
New York, New York
New York
New York
New York
New York
