New York, New York (From "On the Town")

New York, New York - The New Musical Cast/Original Cast Recording

We've got one day here and not another minute

To see the famous sights

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

New York New York a helluva town

The Bronx is up and the Battery's down

The people ride in a hole in the groun'

New York New York it's a helluva town

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 one day

Got to see the whole town

From Yonkers on down to the Bay

New York New York a visitor's place

Where no one lives on account of the pace

But seven millions are screaming for space

New York New York it's a visitor's place

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

Maybe seven

Or eight

On your way

In just one day

New York New York a helluva town

The Bronx is up and the Battery's down

The people ride in a hole in the groun'

New York New York it's a helluva town
