New Yorks My Home |
| Listen all you New Yorkers |
| There’s a rumour going round |
| That some of you good people |
| Want to leave this town |
| Well, you better consult with me |
| Before you go (yeah) |
| Cause I been to all those places |
| And I know |
| (Chicago) well, Chicago’s all right |
| It’s got Marshall Field and |
| Soldier’s Field and it’s |
| On a nice lake |
| But it hasn’t got |
| The hansoms in the park |
| It hasn’t got a skyline after dark |
| (That's why New York’s his home) |
| Let me never leave it |
| New York’s my home, sweet home |
| (San Francisco) |
| San Francisco is a lovely place |
| It’s got lots of hills |
| And lots of thrills and it’s |
| Near an ocean of some size |
| But it hasn’t got |
| The Bowery or The Bronx |
| It hasn’t got the Harlem honkytonks |
| (That's why New York’s his home) |
| Yeah, it’s my favorite city |
| New York’s my home, sweet home |
| (St.Louis) |
| Lots of people like St. Louis |
| It’s got lots of shoes |
| And the St. Louis blues and one |
| Of our larger rivers runs by |
| But let’s face it |
| It hasn’t got the opera in The Met |
| It hasn’t got a famous string quartet |
| (That's why New York’s his home) |
| No, not a place to visit |
| New York’s my home, sweet home |
| (Hollywood) Hollywood |
| Hollywood’s got movie stars and |
| Movie czars and cocktail bars and |
| Shiny cars and a wonderful climate |
| (Cough, cough) they say |
| But it hasn’t got |
| The handy subway trains |
| You seldom find a taxi |
| When it’s pouring down rain |
| (That's why New York’s his home) |
| Yeah, take your California |
| New York’s my home, sweet home |
| So, save your time and trouble |
| Save your railroad fare |
| I said save your time and trouble |
| Save your railroad fare |
| Cause when you leave New York |
| Man, you don’t go anywhere |
| It’s a city where a man |
| Can fulfill his dreams |
| The only town that’s left |
| That’s got three baseball teams |
| (That's why New York’s his home) |
| Let me never leave it |
| New York’s my home, sweet home |
