AUDIO CD Music Broadway

N.Y.C.
Warbucks:
NYC
What is it about you
You're big
You're loud
You're tough

NYC
I go years without you
Then I
Can't get
Enough

Enough of cab drivers answering back
In the language far from pure
Enough of frankfurters answering back
Brother, you know you're in
NYC

Too busy, too crazy
Too hot
Too cold
Too late
I'm sold
Again
On NYC

All (New Yokers and Grace Annie and Warbucks):
NYC

Grace:
The shadows at sundown
The roofs
That scrape
The sky

All:
NYC

Warbucks and Grace:
The rich and the rundown
The big parade goes by

Warbucks:
No 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 NYC

Warbucks:
You make 'em all postcards

Warbucks and Grace:
You crowd
You cramp
You're still
The champ
Amen
For NYC

(NYC)
The shimmer of Times Square

Warbucks:
The pulse

Grace:
The beat

Warbucks and Grace:
The drive!
(NYC)

Warbucks:
You might say the Times Square
But then I come alive!

Warbucks and 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, NYC
The whole world keeps coming

Warbucks:
By bus

Grace:
By train

Warbucks and Grace:
You can't
Explain
Their yen for...

Star to be:
NYC
Just got here this morning
Three bucks
Two bags
One me
NYC
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
Through California pays big for thier 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 NYC
