0:01Oooh oooh' New York (2x)
0:23Grew up in a town'
0:24That is famous as a place of movie scenes
0:33Noise is always loud
0:34There are sirenes all around
0:36And the streets are mean
0:43If I could make it here
0:45I could make it anywhere
0:48That's what they say
0:53Seeing my face in lights
0:55Or my name in marquees found down Broadway
1:04Even if it ain't all it seems
1:05I got a pocketful of dreams
1:07Baby' I'm from
1:08New York' concrete jungle where dreams are made of
1:14There's nothing you can't do
1:17Now you're in New York
1:22These streets will make you feel brand new
1:25Big lights will inspire you
1:28Hear it for New York' New York' New York
1:35On the avenue' there ain't never a curfew
1:38Ladies work so hard
1:45Such a melting pot on the corner selling rock
1:48Preachers pray to God
1:56Hail a gypsy cab
1:57Takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
2:06Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger
2:08For more than from an empty fridge
2:16I'm going to make it by any means
2:18I got a pocketful of dreams
2:19Baby' I'm from
2:21New York' concrete jungle where dreams are made of
2:27There's nothing you can't do
2:30Now you're in New York
2:35These streets will make you feel brand new
2:37Big lights will inspire you
2:40Hear it for New York' New York' New York
2:47One hand in the air for the big city
2:49Street lights' big dreams' all looking pretty
2:52No place in the world that can compared
2:54Put your lighters in the air
2:56Everybody say yeah' yeah yeah
3:01New York' concrete jungle where dreams are made of
3:08There's nothing you can't do
3:11Now you're in New York
3:15These streets will make you feel brand new
3:19Big lights will inspire you
3:21Hear it for New York
Oooh oooh' New York (2x) Grew up in a town' That is famous as a place of movie scenes Noise is always loud There are sirenes all around And the streets are mean If I could make it here I could make it anywhere That's what they say Seeing my face in lights Or my name in marquees found down Broadway Even if it ain't all it seems I got a pocketful of dreams Baby' I'm from New York' concrete jungle where dreams are made of There's nothing you can't do Now you're in New York These streets will make you feel brand new Big lights will inspire you Hear it for New York' New York' New York On the avenue' there ain't never a curfew Ladies work so hard Such a melting pot on the corner selling rock Preachers pray to God Hail a gypsy cab Takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger For more than from an empty fridge I'm going to make it by any means I got a pocketful of dreams Baby' I'm from New York' concrete jungle where dreams are made of There's nothing you can't do Now you're in New York These streets will make you feel brand new Big lights will inspire you Hear it for New York' New York' New York One hand in the air for the big city Street lights' big dreams' all looking pretty No place in the world that can compared Put your lighters in the air Everybody say yeah' yeah yeah New York' concrete jungle where dreams are made of There's nothing you can't do Now you're in New York These streets will make you feel brand new Big lights will inspire you Hear it for New York
