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
Chorus
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
