New York - Lyrics by The Teens


Lyrics
She was a back street dancer out-a New Orleans
Been featured once or twice in the small magazin
Doing alright - yesshe's doing alright.
She's on broadwayyesshe's come a long way
Baby
And now she's a star. Ring on every finger and big fancy car
Doing alright - yesshe's doing alright
Got her name up in lightsshe's a queen of the night.
You're in New Yorkyou're a star.A sensationyesyou are - in the money
And they're applauding you.
You're in New Yorkyou're a star. . . .
You're a diamond studded lady and a race on the stage
You're known across the nation
I guess you got it made.
Doing alrightyesyou're doing alrightyou're on Broadway.
You get offers from the movies to appear on the screen
But you're sleeping on it
Baby'cause it's not quite your scene
Doing alrightyesyou're doing alright
Got your name up in lightsshe's the queen of the night.
You're in New Yorkyou're a star. . . .
You're in New Yorkyou're a star. . . .
