| Morning comes crashing like a rock through a window
|
| Jackhammer banging on the hot concrete
|
| Take your stand (hey!)
|
| Move it, man!
|
| It’s a backtalk, sidewalk symphony
|
| Uber cars, yellow cabs, thick as smoke
|
| Painted girls and would leave you broke
|
| Sax man blowing shooting through my veins
|
| There’s a rhythm to the rocket that’s intoxicating
|
| Goodnight New York, goodnight
|
| Don’t ever close your eyes
|
| If these streets could talk, «New York, New York»
|
| So fine they named you twice
|
| Your face, your brains, no other place
|
| From east to west, these streets are blessed
|
| Goodnight New York, sleep tight New York
|
| Goodnight
|
| Starbucks, FedEx trucks on every street and avenue
|
| Broadway lights, shining bright, make everybody beautiful
|
| Walking on the high line, reaching for the sky line
|
| If Alexander Hamilton could see it all
|
| Garbage trucks backing up, beep, beep, beep
|
| Dogs barking on the balcony, the kids can’t sleep
|
| Scaffolds, pot holes, bagman’s on a bicycle
|
| Fast trains, bus, planes, welcome to the carnival
|
| Goodnight New York, goodnight
|
| Don’t ever close your eyes
|
| If these streets could talk, «New York, New York»
|
| So fine they named you twice
|
| Your face, your brains, no other place
|
| From east to west, these streets are blessed
|
| Goodnight New York, sleep tight New York
|
| Goodnight
|
| The bravest and the finest
|
| My hand’s on my heart for you
|
| To the ones who paid the price
|
| And to those who saw us through
|
| It’s late, I’m getting weary
|
| So for now, I’ll say
|
| Goodnight New York, goodnight
|
| Don’t ever close your eyes
|
| If these streets could talk, «New York, New York»
|
| So fine they named you twice
|
| Goodnight New York, goodnight
|
| Don’t ever close your eyes
|
| If these streets could talk, «New York, New York»
|
| So fine they named you twice
|
| Your face, your brains, no other place
|
| From east to west, these streets are blessed
|
| Goodnight New York, sleep tight New York
|
| Goodnight
|
| Ah, goodnight New York
|
| Sleep tight New York
|
| Goodnight
|
| So goodnight New York
|
| Sleep tight New York
|
| Goodnight |
