[Verse 1]
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 damn old store
Big Apple dreamin' on a wooden floor
[Refrain]
Skyscrapers and subways and stations
Staring up at the United Nations
[Chorus]
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?
[Verse 2]
Heard 'bout them massages, and all those dirty shows
And I read somewhere some places never close
Whilе we waste time on yokеls, comin' through the door
Big Apple dreamin' on a wooden floor
[Refrain]
Skyscrapers and subways and stations
Staring up at the United Nations
[Chorus]
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, woo-ooh
New York, we're coming to see what you're made of
Are you as tough as you sound? Yeah
[Outro]
New York, we're 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 to 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, we're coming
Oh, we're coming
They're waitin' for you and me, baby
Oh, mama...
