New York! New York! Lyrics
[ALL]
New York, New York!
It's a helluva town!
[GABEY]
We've got one day here and not another minute
To see the famous sights!
[OZZIE]
We'll find the romance and danger waiting in it
Beneath the Broadway lights;
But we've hair on our chests
So what we like the best are the nights
Sights! Lights! Nights!
[ALL]
New York, New York, a helluva town
The Bronx is up, but the Battery's down
The people ride in a hole in the groun'
New York, New York, it's a helluva town!
[CHIP]
The famous places to visit are so many
Or so the guidebooks say
I promised Daddy I wouldn't miss on any
And we have just one day
Got to see the whole town
From Yonkers on down to the Bay
[ALL]
In just one day!
New York, New York, a visitor's place
Where no one lives on account of the pace
But seven millions are screaming for space
New York, New York, it's a visitor's place!
[OZZIE]
Manhattan women are dressed in silk and satin
Or so the fellas say;
There's just one thing that's important in Manhattan
When you have just one day;
Gotta pick up a date
[CHIP]
Maybe seven
[GABEY]
Or eight
On your way
[ALL]
In just one day!
New York, New York, a helluva town
The Bronx is up, but the Battery's down
The people ride in a hole in the groun'
New York, New York, it's a helluva town!!
