new york, new york - leonard bernstein lyrics

Loading...

[gabey, chip, and ozzie]
new york, new york!
it’s a h-ll of a 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;
but we’ve hair on our chests
so what we like the best are the nights
sights! lights! nights!

[all]
new york, new york, a h-lluva town
the bronx is up, but the battery’s down
the people ride in a hole in the groun’
new york, new york, it’s a h-lluva town!

(spoken interlude)
[chip]
hey, gabey! gabey, look! gabey, it says here “there are 20,000 streets in new york, not counting macdougal alley the heart of green-witch village, a charming thoroughfare filled with…”

[ozzie]
here we go again!

(song)
[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
got to see the whole town
from yonkers on down to the bay

[all]
in just one day!
new york, new york, a visitor’s place
where no one lives on account of the pace
but seven millions are screaming for sp-ce
new york, new york, it’s a visitor’s place!

(spoken interlude)
[gabey]
hey! look who’s comin’ back! it’s tom and andy!

[ozzie]
hey, tom, andy! hey, fellas, how are the new york dames?

[andy]
wonderful – i don’t remember a thing!

[tom]
awful! i remember everything!

(song)
[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 h-lluva town
the bronx is up, but the battery’s down
the people ride in a hole in the groun’
new york, new york, it’s a h-lluva town!!
