suddenly
i'm respectable
starin' right at 'cha
lousy with stature
Jack:
nobbin' with all the muckety-mucks
i'm blowin' my dough and goin' deluxe

Racetrack and jack:

a corduroy suit with fitted knickers

a mezzanine seat to see the flickers

Kid blink:
makin' a headline out of a hunch

and payin' for lunch
Denton:
when i'm at bat
strong men crumble
Racetrack:
proud yet humble
Racetrack and denton:
i'm (he's) the king of new york

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
Startin' now
i'm the king of new york
Denton:

i'm the king of new york
All:
holy cow
it's miracle
pulitzer's cryin'
weasel, he's dyin'
flashpots are shootin' bright as the sun
i'm one highfalutin' son-of-a-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!
