We're so young and pretty, we're so young and clean

So many things that we have never seen

Let's move from Ohio, sell this dam' old store

Big Apple dreamin' on a wooden floor



Skyscrapers and subways and stations

Staring up at the United Nations



New York is waiting for you and me, baby

Waiting to swallow us down

New York, we're coming to see what you're made of

Are you as great as you sound



Heard about them massages, and all those dirty shows

I read somewhere some places never close

While we waste time on yokels, comin' through the door

Big Apple dreamin' on a wooden floor



Skyscrapers and subways and stations

Staring up at the United Nations



New York is waiting for you and me, baby

Waiting to swallow us down

New York, we're coming to see what you're made of

Are you as great as you sound



New York is waiting for you and me, baby

Waiting to swallow us down

New York, we're coming to see what you're made of

Are you as tough as you sound



Oh, New York is waiting for you and me, baby

Waiting to swallow us down, whoo-oo

New York, we're coming, to see what you're made of

Are you as tough as you sound



Yeah, New York is waiting, baby

Waiting to swallow us down,

New York, we're coming, see what you're made of

You can't be as tough as you sound



Oh, New York, you and me, baby

Waiting to swallow us down,

New York, we're coming see what you're made of

Are you as great as you sound



Oh, New York, Oh, New York we're coming

Oh, we're coming to see what you're made of

Oh, you can't be as tough as you sound

Me and my baby,
