ooh new york 
ooh new york 
grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes 
noise is 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 
seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on 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 
let's hear it for new york new york new yoooork 
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 sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge 
i'm gonna 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
