Here we are in New York City These are our New York times The streets are cold but the streets are pretty The sky is blue and climbs And here we are in New York City In the acid snow Steam is blowing through the road holes Yellow taxis flow And here we are in New York City Taking the subway home Dirty traders show no pity The homeless sleep alone Another night in New York City Feeling the magic flow Tugboats pulling Hudson liners Liberty sees and knows Broadway lights and billboards Tower overhead Hudson down to Jane Street Ripping it to shreds Fairy light and shadows Interslanted eyes We got lost on our way to Dave's In New York how time flies Here we are in New York City These are our New York times The streets are cold but the streets are pretty The sky is blue and climbs And here we are in New York City In the acid snow Steam is blowing through the road holes Yellow taxis flow Everything's alright Everything's okay Everything's all night Everything's all day New York City New York
