I don't care where you are from, New York New York sung with the great Frank Sinatra never fails to make you want to spread wings, lol. but last year when Smarty Jones came to the Big Apple, a much greater effort was put forth to make this big event a truly classic one. So very fitting for a horse with modest backgrounds....

*If I can make it there,
I'd make it anywhere,*


New York, New York

Start spreadin' the news,
I'm leaving today,
I wanna be a part of it
New York, New York.

These vagabond shoes
are longing to stray,
And step around the heart of it
New York, New York.

I wanna wake up in the
city that doesn't sleep
to find I'm king of the hill,
top of the heap.

My little town blues
are melting away,
I'll make a brand new start of it
in old New York.

If I can make it there,
I'd make it anywhere,
It's up to you,
New York, New York.
