If I die in New York city

Bury me on the Battery

The pretty girls on Brooklyn ferry

Ask them all to weep for me

I'll be smiling brother

When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life

In New York town

Say it again
I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down

Cause I lived my life

In New York town

And I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town
I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

Because I lived my life
In New York town
