“New York, New York”: Frank Sinatra Oiselle
Start spreadin' the news, we’re leavin' Friday
We want you to be a part of it
New York, New York
These racing shoes, are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it
New York, New York
We want to wake up, in a city that always sleeps
And find we’re queen of the hills
Top of the heap
Our team singlet hues
Will help you spot a Volée
We’ll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If we can make it there, we’ll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York
New York, New York
We want to wake up in a city that always sleeps
And find we’re number one, top of the list
Queen of the hills, a number one
Our team singlet hues,
Will help you spot a Volée
We’ll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
And
If we can make it there
We’re gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York
New York
New York
