Words and Music by Steve Karmen
I LOVE NEW YORK (repeat 3 times)
There isn't another like it
No matter where you go
And nobody can compare it
It's win and place and show
New York is special
New York is diff'rent
'Cause there's no place else on earth
Quite like New York
And that's why
I LOVE NEW YORK (Repeat 3 times)
