She left me all alone
in this jungle of stone
I miss you miss Kitty
it’s hard to be alone in rock’n’roll city
New York New York town without pity
New York New York rock’n’roll city

And Chuckie Dee is sittin’ by the kitchen door
he doesn’t seem to do much talkin’ anymore
I said, what’s comin’ down to Chuckie my friend
he says, beat it boy I’m waitin’ for my medicine man

New York New York too bad to be pretty
New York New York rock’n’roll city
New York New York town without pity
New York New York rock’n’roll city

La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la New York New York
la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la New York New York
I miss you miss Kitty
it’s so hard to be alone in rock’n’roll city
New York New York town without pity
New York New York rock’n’roll city
New York New York too bad to be pretty
New York New York rock’n’roll city
