My little town blues
I'm melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New YorkIf I can make it there
I'd make it anywhere
Come on, come through
New York, New YorkStart spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York, New YorkThese vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
And step around the heart of it
New York, New YorkI want to wake up in a city
That doesn't sleep
To find I'm king of the hill
Top of the heapMy little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New YorkIf I can make it there
I'd make it anywhere
It's up to you
New York, New YorkNew York, New York
I want to wake up in a city
To find I'm king of the hill
Head of the list, dream of the, top of the, top of the heapMy old town blues
Oh, I'm melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New YorkIf I can make it there
I'd make it anywhere
Come on, come through
New York, New YorkMy old town blues
I'm melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New YorkIf I can make it there
I'd make it anywhere
Come on, yankers come through
New York, New York
