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 wanna 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 
Anywhere
It’s up to you - 
New York, New York

Right through very hard of it
New York, New York
I wanna wake up in a city, 
That never sleeps
And find I’m king of the hill 
Top of the list
On the top of the heap.

These little town blues 
Are melting away.
I'll make a brand new start of it 
In old New York.
And if I can make it there, 
I'm gonna make it anywhere.
It's up to you, 
New York, New York.
