Oliver and Company movie - Once Upon a Time in New York City lyrics

rate me

Song by Huey Lewis<br /><br>

Now it's always once upon a time<br>

In New York City<br>

It's a big old, bad old, tough old town, it's true<br>

But beginnings are contagious there<br>

They're always setting stages there<br>

They're always turning pages there for you<br>

<br>

Ain't it great the way it all begins<br>

in New York City?<br>

Right away you're making time and making friends<br>

No one cares where you were yesterday<br>

If they pick you out you're on your way<br>

To a once upon a time that never ends<br>

<br>

So, Oliver, don't be shy<br>

Get out there, let go and try<br>

Believing that you're the guy<br>

They're dying to see<br>

'Cause a dream's no crime<br>

Not once upon a time<br>

Once upon a time in New York City<br>

<br>

If it's always once upon a time<br>

In New York City<br>

Why does nightfall find you feeling so alone?<br>

How could anyone stay starry eyed<br>

When it's raining cats and dogs outside<br>

And the rain is saying, "Now you're on your own"?<br>

<br>

So, Oliver, don't be scared<br>

Though yesterday no one cared<br>

They're getting your place prepared<br>

Where you want to be<br>

Keep your dream alive<br>

Dreaming is still how the strong survive<br>

Once upon a time in New York City<br>

<br>

Keep your dream alive<br>

Dreaming is still how the strong survive<br>

Once upon a time in New York City<br>

Keep your dream alive<br>

Dreaming is still how the strong survive<br>

Once upon a time in New York City<br>

And it's always once upon a time<br>

In New York City<br>

<br>
