Gene Kelly
New york, new york
Dockhand:
I feel like I'm not out of bed yet, oh, oh, oh
Oh the sun is warm, and my blanket's warmer
Sleep, sleep in your lady's arms
Sleep in your lady's arms

(Ship's whistle, the sailors rush down from ship to dock)
Sailors Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra and Jules Munshin sing:

New York, New York, New York, New York
New York, New York, it's a wonderful town!

Dockhand:
Hahaha, hey fellas, what's the big rush?

Sailors:
We only got 24 hours! We've never been here before!

Dockhand:
What can you see in one day?
What do you think you're gonna do?

Sailors:
New York, New York, it's 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!
(musical interlude)
The famous places to visit are so many
So the guys would say
I know my grandpa wouldn't miss any in just one day
Gotta see the whole town
From Yonkers on down to the bay, in just one day
New York, New York, it's a wonderful town
The Bronx up and the Battery's down
The people ride in a hole in the ground
New York, New York, it's a wonderful town

(musical interlude)
We sailed the seas and played a bit of poker way in Mandalay
We've walked the streets till the night was over
And we can safely say, the most fabulous sight is New York
In the light of day, our only day
New York, New York, it's 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
Manhattan women are all dressed in satin, so the fellows say
There's just one thing necessary in Manhattan
When you just have one day
Gotta pick up a date, maybe seven or eight
By your way, in just one day
New York, New York, it's 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
