When you're a boy
some days are tough
lying on your bed
playing punk rock and stuff
home is a boot camp
you gotta escape
wanna go and wander
in the ticker-tape
you feel the deals is real
you're a new york city boy
so young, so run
into new york city
New york city boy
you'll never have a bored day
cause you're a new york
city boy
where seventh avenue
meets broadway
The street is amazing
the hoochies unreal
check out all the hardware
at the latest deal
hear a song
that's the bomb!
if you don't get the mix
it's gone eighty-six
you feel the deal is real
you're in new york city
New york city boy
you'll never have a bored day
œcause you're a new york
city boy
where seventh avenue
meets broadway
new york city boy
this is your reward day
œcause you're a new york
city boy
where seventh avenue
meets broadway
Then as the evening falls
you can return its calls
You feel the deal is real
you're a new york city boy
so young, so run
into new york city
