Baby, baby with your hard luck story
You need a place to show to win
You'd still be waiting for me at the airport
While my ship was coming in
And New York, you're keeping me dancing

So don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

So don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
So don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

New York, New York, you keep me dancing, dancing
New York, New York, you keep me dancing, dancing

I'm so glad I saw your ad on every avenue
I'm so glad I saw your ad in every glance your threw
It's a town so nice, they had to name it twice
New York, New York
And it's so hot, so hot like an old soft shoe

Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing
New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing
New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing

So don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing
New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing

Dancing the night away
Oh, what a joy at the Barefoot Boy
The club remains the place to be
At 12 West the sound's the best
I guess you can come in your jeans

But I still prefer getting dressed up
But I still prefer getting dressed up for Regine's

Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing
Don't you beware, don't you beware
Keep on dancing

New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing
New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing
New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing
New York, New York, you got me dancing, dancing
