Start spreadin' the news
I'm leavin' New York today
I *wanted* to be a part of it - but no more
New York, New Yorrrrrrrrrrk
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
*Away* from the very heart of it
New York, New York
I *wanted* to 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 *wanted* make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I could have made it there
I could have made it
Anywhere
It's up to you
New York, New York
New York, New York
I wanted to wake up in a city
That never sleeps
And find I'm A number one
Top of the list
King of the hill
A number one
These little town blues
Are melting away
I *wanted* to make a brand new start of it
In old New York
And if I *could have made* it there
I *could have made it* anywhere
It's up to you
New York, New York
New York.
But now the great ol' New York
Is goin' down the drain
Because of the socialist mayor
what a terrible stain
New York New York
I'm movin' to Israel
I'm goin' today
To the Land that G-d promised
Eretz Yisrael Eretz Yisraeeeeelllllllll
Because making it there
Is worth more than makin' it anywhere
It's up to you dear yidden
Dear Yidden.....
