I was eating a gyro sandwich walking down Eighth Avenue
When a young girl came up to me and said, "Brother, you got something
I can chew?"
Well I kept walking along trying to make up a song about what to do,
Telling how the city lights and the Broadway nights are like a dream
come true
Good old...
CHORUS:
New York, New York, so good they named it twice,
New York, New York, all the scandal and the vice, 1 love it!
New York, New York, now isn't it a pity .........
What they say about New York City
It was a really nice night for a good street fight or a robbery
But I always knew in my home town that would never happen to me
I kept walking around trying to make up a sound 'bout what it's like
to be
In the city of light on a rag time night, it's something more than
free
In good old...
New York, New York, so good they named it twice,
New York, New York, all the scandal and the vice, 1 love it!
New York, New York, now isn't it a pity .........
What they say about New York City
Every time I have to leave and travel far away
I am never ever happy 'til I'm home to stay,
Home to stay in New York
(Piano Solo)
New York, New York, so good they named it twice,
New York, New York,all the scandal and the vice, I love it!
New York, New York, now isn't it a pity.........
What they say about New York City
