alan menken - king of new york (film version) lyrics

Loading...

[mush]
a pair o’ new shoes with matchin’ laces

[racetrack]
a permanent box at sheepshead races

[spot]
a porcelain tub with boilin’ water

[kid blink]
a sat-rday night with the mayor’s daughter!

[racetrack]
look at me
i’m the king of new york!
suddenly, i’m respectable
staring right at’cha
lousy with stature

[jack]
n0bbin’ with all the muckety-mucks
i’m blowin’ my dough and goin’ deluxe!

[racetrack]
and there i be!
ain’t i pretty?

[racetrack & jack]
it’s my city
i’m the king of new york!

[boots]
a corduroy suit with fitted knickers

[les]
a mezzanine seat to see the fl!ckers

[snipeshooter]
havana cigars that cost a quarter

[david]
an editor’s desk for the star reporter!

[newsies]
tip your hat
he’s the king of new york!

[denton]
how ’bout that?
i’m the king of new york!

[newsies]
in nothing flat
he’ll be coverin’
brooklyn to trenton
our man denton

[kid blink]
makin’ a headline out of a hunch

[denton]
protectin’ the weak

[racetrack]
and payin’ for lunch

[denton]
when i’m at bat
strong men crumble

[racetrack]
proud yet humble

[denton (racetrack)]
i’m (he’s) the king of new york

[newsies]
i gotta be either dead or dreamin’
’cause look at that pape with my face beamin’
tomorrow they may wrap fishes in it
but i was a star for one whole minute!

starting now
i’m the king of new york!

[denton]
ain’t you heard?
i’m the king of new york!

[newsies]
holy cow!
it’s a miracle
pulitzer’s cryin’
weasel? he’s dying!

flashpots are shootin’ bright as the sun
i’m one highfalutin’ sonuva gun!
don’t ask me how
fortune found me, fate just crowned me
now i’m king of new york!

look and see
once a piker, now a striker
i’m the king of new york!

victory!
front page story, guts and glory
i’m the king of new york!
