Lyrics
Julie wants to catch another play
It doesn’t have to be one on Broadway
She’s a theater hound ; please her while she’s ‘round
Takes her final bow in seven days
Gotham makes some people feel real low
Julie’s high on it but has to go
Take her by the hand; she’s slipping past like sand
Can these final hours go real slow
She’s a New Yorker
She’s a New Yorker
She’s a New Yorker one more week
Julie wants to take us all to lunch
She always chooses wisely for our bunch
A Thai place where we dwell; ostrich soup they sell
Julie doesn’t compromise a hunch
She’s a New Yorker. She’s a New Yorker
She’s a New Yorker one more week
Take a bow
Take a bow
We knew this day was coming and that’s now
She’s a New Yorker. She’s a New Yorker
She’s a New Yorker one more week
Julie brings sunlight to the lame
Organized our trips to watch Mets games
Caught our improv shows; why she laughs who knows
Julie doesn’t shy away from pain
She’s a New Yorker. She’s a New Yorker
She’s a New Yorker one more week
She’s a New Yorker. She’s a New Yorker
She’s a New Yorker one more week
Take a bow
Take a bow
Take a bow
Take a bow
