Lyrics[]
Gabey, Chip and Ozzie:
New York, New York!
It's a wonderful 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
Gabey, Chip and Ozzie:
But we've hair on our chests
So what we like the best are the nights
Chip:
Sights!
Ozzie:
Lights!
Gabey:
Nights!
Gabey, Chip and Ozzie:
New York, New York, a wonderful town
The Bronx is up, and the Battery's down
The people ride in a hole in the ground'
New York, New York, it's a wonderful 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
Gotta see the whole town
From Yonkers on down to the Bay
Gabey, Chip, & Ozzie:
In just one day!
New York, New York, a visitor's place
Where no one lives on account of the pace
But seven million 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
Ozzie:
Or eight
On your way
Gabey, Chip and Ozzie:
In just one day!
New York, New York, a wonderful town
The Bronx is up, and the Battery's down
The people ride in a hole in the ground'
New York, New York, it's a wonderful town!
