New York, New York Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra]
Start spreading the news, you're leaving today (Tell me, Frank)
I want to be a part of it: New York, New York
Your vagabond shoes, they are longing to stray
And step around the heart of it: New York, New York

[Hook: Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra]
I wanna wake up in that city that doesn't sleep
And find your king of the hill, top of the heap

[Verse 2: Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra]
Your small town blues, they're melting away
Gonna make a brand new start of it in old New York

[Hook: Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra]
You always make it there, you make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York

[Bridge]
Da da da da da
Da da da ba ba ba
In New York, New York

[Verse 3]
I want to wake up in that city that doesn't sleeps
And find I'm king of the hill, top of the list
You bet, end of the line, king of the hill
[Outro]
These little town blues, they have all melting away
And I'm gonna make a brand new start of it
Right there in old New York (You better believe it, folks)
You always make it there, you make make it anywhere
Come on, come through, New York, New York
New York!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
