Start spreading the news
You’re leaving today (tell him friend)
I want to be a part of it, New York, New York
Your vagabond shoes, they are longing to stray
And steps around the heart of it, New York, New York
And find your king of the hill, top of the heap
Don’t make a brand new start of it, in Old New York
You always make it there, you make it anywhere
Its up to you, New York, New York
I want to wake up in a city, that doesn’t sleeps
And find king of the hill one top of the list
A number one
I’m gonna make a brand new start of it
Right there in Old New York
You allways make it there, You make it anywhere
