I Happen To Like New York (Original Mix)

I Happen To Like New York (Original Mix) - Judy Garland

I happen to like New York I happen to like this town

I like the city air I like to drink of it

The more I know New York the more I think of it

I like the sight and the sound and even the stink of it

I happen to like New York

I like to go to Battery Park and watch those liners booming in

I often ask myself

Why should it be that they should come so far from across the sea

I suppose it's because they all agree with me

They happen to like New York

Last Sunday afternoon I took a trip to Hackensack

But after I gave Hackensack the once over

I took the next train back

I happen to like New York I happen to love this burg

And when I have to give the world a last farewell

And the undertaker starts to ring my funeral bell

I don't want to go to heaven don't want to go to hell

I happen to like New York

I happen to like New York
