Lyrics:

[English]

Start spreading the news

I'm leaving today

I want to be a part of it

New York, New York

These vagabond shoes

They are longing to stray

Right through the very heart of it

New York, New York

I want to wake up in a city

That never sleeps

And find I'm king of the hill

Top of the heap

These small town blues

They are melting away

I'll make a brand new start of it

In old New York

If I can make it there

I'll make it anywhere

It's up to you

New York, New York

...

New York, New York

I want to wake up in a city

That doesn't sleep

And find that I'm number one

Top of the list

Head of the heap

King of the hill

...

These little town blues

...

They've all melted away

I'm gonna make a brand new start of it

In old New York

And

If I can make it there

I'll make it practically anywhere

It's up to you

New York, New York

New York

...
