Verse 1

You called me last night on the telephone, and

I was glad to hear from you 'cause I was all alone, you said "It's

snowing, it's snowing! God, I hate this weather."

Now I walk through blizzards just to get us back together

We met in the springtime at a rock-and-roll show

It was on the Bowery when it was time to go

We kissed on the subway in the middle of the night

I held your hand, you held mine, it was the best night of my life.

Chorus

'Cause everyone's your friend in New York City

And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty

The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see

/tacet

But the best thing about New York City is... you and

me

Verse 3

Statue of Liberty, Staten Island Ferry, Co-op City, Katz's and

Tiffany's

Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge, The Empire State where Dylan lived

Coney Island and Times Square, Rockefeller Center

Wish I was there

You wrote me a letter just the other day

Said, "Springtime is coming soon so why don't you come to stay."

I packed my stuff, got on the bus, I can't believe it's true

I'm three days from New York City and I'm three days from you

Solo

Chorus

'Cause everyone's your friend in New York City

And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty

The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see

But the best thing about New York City is

you and me

'Cause everyone's your friend in New York City

And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty

The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see

But the best thing about New York City is

you and me
