Artist/Band: Tom Waits
Lyrics for Song: I'll Take New York
Lyrics for Album: Franks Wild Years [1993]



I'll tip the newsboy

I'll get a shine

I'll ride this dream

to the end of the line

I'm goin places

I'll take a ride

Up to the Riverside

I'll take NY

I'll let it happen

I'll pop the cork

tear off the wrappin'

I'll make a splash on the Hudson

that's how I will arrive

Hey, do you have two tens for a five?

Roll out the carpet

Strike up the band

break into the best

champagne when I land

Beat the parade drum

hit all the bars

I want the moon and stars

But I'll take NY

I'll make it happen

Blow out the candlels

tear off the wrappin'

And I know someday

they'll have to name a street after me

right next door to old Franklin D
