I've been workin' in New York City
High above the bay
Watchin the boats a-comin' and a-goin'
And wishin' I was on my way
Miss Liberty still stands in the harbor
Lookin' the other way
And I realize that some of my freedom
Has to move out to L.A.

Goodbye New York
Goodbye you Big White Way
Goodbye to New York City
And hello L.A.

Friends have old me friends are easier
To find and know in L.A.
And the clothes they wear are loose and friendly
And worn to fit the day
And the supper clubs aren't close
To just a few who have a key
And life is lived as life is loved
The way it ought to be

Well I might miss the Broadway lights
Or moonlight on the bay
But not the kind of hi-fi life
New Yorkers have to play
But I'm still sure that I'll go back
To visit another day
And it'll be just to see my friends
And talk about L.A.

Drivin' across the Barstow Desert
And thinkin' about the way
That I'd just now be boarding the subway
To work another day
Only a few more miles to ride
Only a smile away
And I'll be walkin on Sunset Strip
Way out in L.A.

Goodbye New York
Goodbye you Big White Way
Goodbye to new York City 
And hello L.A.

I said goodbye to New York
Goodbye you Big White Way
Goodbye New York City 
And hello L.A.
