| [00:13.86] |
Listen all you New Yorkers |
| [00:15.33] |
There's a rumour going round |
| [00:17.22] |
That some of you good people |
| [00:18.75] |
Want to leave this town |
| [00:21.60] |
Well, you better consult with me |
| [00:23.40] |
Before you go (yeah) |
| [00:25.89] |
Cause I been to all those places |
| [00:28.59] |
And I know |
| [00:31.05] |
(Chicago) well, Chicago's all right |
| [00:33.69] |
It's got Marshall Field and |
| [00:35.07] |
Soldier's Field and it's |
| [00:36.84] |
On a nice lake |
| [00:40.17] |
But it hasn't got |
| [00:41.70] |
The hansoms in the park |
| [00:44.19] |
It hasn't got a skyline after dark |
| [00:47.25] |
(That's why New York's his home) |
| [00:49.65] |
Let me never leave it |
| [00:51.21] |
New York's my home, sweet home |
| [00:55.38] |
(San Francisco) |
| [00:56.58] |
San Francisco is a lovely place |
| [00:58.71] |
It's got lots of hills |
| [01:00.24] |
And lots of thrills and it's |
| [01:02.37] |
Near an ocean of some size |
| [01:06.72] |
But it hasn't got |
| [01:08.10] |
The Bowery or The Bronx |
| [01:10.59] |
It hasn't got the Harlem honkytonks |
| [01:12.27] |
(That's why New York's his home) |
| [01:13.59] |
Yeah, it's my favorite city |
| [01:17.64] |
New York's my home, sweet home |
| [01:19.59] |
(St.Louis) |
| [01:22.86] |
Lots of people like St.Louis |
| [01:24.66] |
It's got lots of shoes |
| [01:25.95] |
And the St.Louis blues and one |
| [01:28.83] |
Of our larger rivers runs by |
| [01:32.88] |
But let's face it |
| [01:34.23] |
It hasn't got the opera in The Met |
| [01:38.19] |
It hasn't got a famous string quartet |
| [01:41.10] |
(That's why New York's his home) |
| [01:43.35] |
No, not a place to visit |
| [01:45.18] |
New York's my home, sweet home |
| [01:49.59] |
(Hollywood) Hollywood |
| [01:51.36] |
Hollywood's got movie stars and |
| [01:53.04] |
Movie czars and cocktail bars and |
| [01:55.17] |
Shiny cars and a wonderful climate |
| [02:00.48] |
(Cough, cough) they say |
| [02:02.88] |
But it hasn't got |
| [02:04.41] |
The handy subway trains |
| [02:06.93] |
You seldom find a taxi |
| [02:08.40] |
When it's pouring down rain |
| [02:09.96] |
(That's why New York's his home) |
| [02:11.58] |
Yeah, take your California |
| [02:13.95] |
New York's my home, sweet home |
| [02:18.93] |
So, save your time and trouble |
| [02:22.83] |
Save your railroad fare |
| [02:24.39] |
I said save your time and trouble |
| [02:33.93] |
Save your railroad fare |
| [02:40.44] |
Cause when you leave New York |
| [02:42.33] |
Man, you don't go anywhere |
| [02:49.56] |
It's a city where a man |
| [02:51.09] |
Can fulfill his dreams |
| [02:53.04] |
The only town that's left |
| [02:54.42] |
That's got three baseball teams |
| [02:56.10] |
(That's why New York's his home) |
| [02:58.56] |
Let me never leave it |
| [03:00.15] |
New York's my home, sweet home |
