Audra Mcdonald - Nyc Lyrics

[WARBUCKS]
N.Y.C
What is it about you
You're big
You're loud
You're tough

N.Y.C
I go years without you
Then I
Can't get
Enough

In N.Y.C
Too busy, too crazy
Too hot, too cold
Too late, I'm sold
Again
On N.Y.C

[NEW YORKERS, GRACE, ANNIE, WARBUCKS]
N.Y.C

[GRACE]
The shadows at sundown
The roofs
That scrape
The sky
[ALL]
N.Y.C

[WARBUCKS AND GRACE]
The rich and the rundown
The big parade
Goes by

[WARBUCKS]
What other town has the Empire State
And a mayor five-foot-two
No other town in
The whole forty-eight
Can half compare
To you

[ALL]
Oh N.Y.C

[WARBUCKS]
You make 'em all postcards

[WARBUCKS & GRACE]
You crowd
You cramp
You're still
The champ
Amen
For N.Y.C
The shimmer of Times Square

[WARBUCKS]
The pulse

[GRACE]
The beat

[WARBUCKS & GRACE]
The drive!

[WARBUCKS]
You might say that I'm square
But damn, I come alive

[WARBUCKS & GRACE]
The city's bright
As a penny arcade
It blinks, it tilts, it rings

[ANNIE]
To think that I've lived here all of my life
And never seen these things

[ALL]
Oh, N.Y.C
The whole world keeps coming
[WARBUCKS]
By bus

[GRACE]
By train

[WARBUCKS & GRACE]
You can't
Explain
Their yen
For

[STAR-TO-BE]
N.Y.C
Just got here this morning
Three bucks
Two bags
One me

N.Y.C
I give you fair warning
Up there
In lights
I'll be

Go ask the Gershwins or Kaufman and Hart
The place they love the best
Though California pays big for their art
Their fan mail comes addressed

To NYC
Tomorrow a penthouse
That's way up high
Tonight
The "Y"
Why not?
It's NYC

[ALL]
NYC
You're standing room only
You crowd
You cramp
You're still
The champ
Amen
For N.Y.C
