Start spreading the news,
Im 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 wanna wake up in a city,
That doesnt sleep
To find Im Queen of the [crowd]
Amd top of the heap

These little town blues,
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
Old new york
If I can make it there,
I'll make it anywhere
New York
Its up to you,
New York
