Song Lyrics

I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY! I'M GOING BACK WHERE LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT.
I'VE BEEN AWAY FROM NEW YORK CITY, IT'S LIKE THE DAWN AFTER THE NIGHT.
I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY, YOUR WAYWARD CHILD JUST HAD TO ROAM.
I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY, I'M GOING BACK, I'M GOING HOME.

Miss Those Crazy Folks, And Those Tourist Yokes, Miss That City So Tall!
Miss That Subway Sound, Speeding Under Ground, All That Art On The Wall!
Miss That Midnight Crowd, People Talking Loud, Lover's Sounds In The Dark!
Miss Those Big Parades, Disco Vice Cop Raids, Buggy Rides In The Park!

I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY! I'M GOING BACK WHERE THE LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT.
I'VE BEEN AWAY FROM NEW YORK CITY! IT'S LIKE THE DAWN AFTER THE NIGHT.
I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY, YOUR WAYWARD CHILD JUST HAD TO ROAM.
I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY, I'M GOING BACK, I'M GOING HOME.

Miss Those Broadway Shows, And The Crowd That Goes,
Miss Those Sleasy Sights Too!
Miss A Taxi Ride, Miss That Special Pride Every City Kid Knew!
Miss Times Square A Lot, Village Nights So Hot,
Miss The Smells And The Sights!
But Most Of All I Miss And I Throw A Kiss To Those Great New York Nights!

I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY! I'M GOING BACK WHERE LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT.
I'VE BEEN AWAY FROM NEW YORK CITY, IT'S LIKE THE DAWN AFTER THE NIGHT.
I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY, YOUR WAYWARD CHILD JUST HAD TO ROAM.
I'M GOING HOME TO NEW YORK CITY,I'M COMING BACK, I'M COMING HOME...
NEW YORK CITY........I'M COMING HOME!
