Big yellow taxi's Driving over the fifty-nine bridge Into a jungle Where reality don't exist New York City, New York City New York City, looks pretty at night A transistor radio Singing the word from the street Down on the underground Species that make your heart beat New York City, New York City New York City, looks pretty at night Graffiti everywhere, graffiti everywhere New York City, New York City New York City, looks pretty at night No double fantasy Someone just waved you goodbye On a street corner Your stairway that led to the sky New York City, New York City New York City, looks pretty at night
