____Verse: 1

  When my heart is torn apart

  by___love I wish I had,

  well, I spend my nights in the ci____ty's lights

  and things don't seem so bad

  ya' know the movement seems to soothe me,

  and the tem___po takes control,

  and I lose___my blues___when the

  New York City rhythm fill my soul;

____Chorus:

  It's the New York City rhythm runnin' thru' my life,

  the pounding beat of the city streets

  that keeps my dreams alive

  I'm lost, I'm found, I'm up, I'm down,

  but somehow I survive____

  it's got to be____the New York City rhythm in my life,

  it's got to be____the New York City rhythm in my life, in my life

____Intro:

  (City rhythm, oo_____)

____Verse: 2

  When I'm out____for love____or sin,

  oh, it's good to be in town,

  in the fun____ky____dives____on the old____west side

  there's always somethin' goin' down

  oh yes, I live my life with strangers,

  and the danger's always there,

  but when I hit Broadway and it's time to play,

  ya' know that I don't care____;

____Chorus:

  It's the New York City rhythm runnin' thru' my life,

  the pounding beat of the city streets

  that keeps my dreams alive

  I'm lost, I'm found, I'm up, I'm down,

  but somehow I survive____

  it's got to be____the New York City rhythm in my life,

  it's got to be____the New York City rhythm in my life, in my life
