Fisherman's Wharf - Peggy Lee, Quincy Jones

Once I said goodbye

To New York City

Sweet city

I said goodbye

But I got to get back to you

If I have to walk

Or crawl or fly

I can’t say goodbye to New York City

Sweet city

Something’s got to give

You know they tell you it’s a great place to visit

But my heart tells me it’s a better place to live

And if I come by plane I can see those buildings high

And if I come by boat I can really heave aside

And if I come by train I can watch those streets go by

And if I land in the airport come in the skyway

Catch a cab that’s going my way

Love the busy home yes this is my day

New York is my town

Yes, New York, New York is my town

And I’ll go uptown, downtown

In this big happy sad town

They love go uptown, downtown

In this big happy sad town

East side, west side

East side, west side

All around the town

I love the people, yes the people

And all they make that big town swing

In the autumn, in the winter

In the summer, in the spring

Yes, the people are everything

Yes, I’ll go uptown, downtown

I’ll go uptown, downtown

There’s the east side, and don’t forget the west side

New York is my city!

New York!
