Ohhhhh New York
Ohhhhh New York
Grew up in a town
That is as famous as a place of movie scenes
Noises always loud
There are sirens all around
And the streets are mean
If I can make it here
I can make it anywhere
That’s what they say
Seen my face in light
Or my name on marquees found
Down on Broadway
Even if it ain’t all it seems
I got a pocket full of dreams
Chorus:
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 pry to God
Hail a gypsy cap
Takes me down from harlem
to the Brooklyn Bridge
Someone sleeps tonight
With the hunger far more
Than an ampty fridge
I’m gonna make it by any means
I got a pocket full of dreams
Chorus
One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams
All looking pretty
No place in the world can compare
Put your lighters in the air
Everybody say Yeah, yeah
Chorus
