Literature
New York, New York 42nd Street
New York, New York on 42nd street
that's where me and Joe use to meet
the cars and smells, buzzers and bells
the poverty and poor outside rich hotels
hats and glasses keep you safe
near the train tracks were colors fade to shades of grey
New York, New York on 42nd street
that's where the fat cats of business like to meet
smoking cuban cigars and drinking french wine
O how they love it,
O how time flies by
I'd sooner be of a plaid jacket and a bowl of soup
then a tie and a business suit
For all these things I have seen,
In New York, New York on 42nd street
