I'll tip the newsboy, I'll get a shine
I'll ride that dream to the end of the line
I'm gonna be goin' places, I'll get a ride
Take me to the Riverside

I'm gonna take you, New York, I'll make it happen
I'm on the caboose, I'm drinkin' Manhattan
I'll take a splash on the big town
That's how I will arrive
Have you got two tens for a five?

You gotta roll out the carpet, strike up the band
Break out the best champagne when I land
You gotta beat the parade drum, hit all the bars
I want the moon and stars

I'm gonna take you, New York, I'll make it happen
I'm on the caboose, I'm drinkin' Manhattans
And I know someday they're going to name a street after me
Right next door to old Franklin D.

I'm gonna take you, big town
Come on, New York
Come on, move over big town
I'll take New York
Come on, big town
Come on, get happy
New York
Come on
