New York girl, ooh ooh ooh |
|
Runnin' pretty, New York City girl |
|
Twenty-five, thirty-five |
|
Hello baby, New York City girl |
|
You grew up riding the subways running with people |
|
Up in Harlem, down on Broadway |
|
You're no tramp but you're no lady talkin' that street talk |
|
You're the heart and soul of New York City |
|
And love, love is just a passing word |
|
It's the thought you had in a taxi cab |
|
That got left on the curb |
|
When he dropped you off at East 83rd |
|
Oh oh oh |
|
(Oh oh oh) |
|
You're a native New Yorker |
|
You should know the score by now |
|
(You should know by now) |
|
You're a native New Yorker |
|
New York girl, ooh ooh ooh |
|
Music plays, everyone's dancing closer and closer |
|
Making friends and finding lovers |
|
There you are lost in the shadows searching for someone |
|
(Searchin' for someone) |
|
To set you free from New York City |
|
And, whoa, where did all those yesterdays go |
|
When you still believed |
|
Love could really be like a Broadway show |
|
You are the star, win the applause |
|
Oh oh oh |
|
(Oh oh oh) |
|
You're a native New Yorker |
|
No one opens the door |
|
For a native New Yorker |
|
(Runnin' pretty, New York City girl) |
|
Ooh ooh ooh |
|
Native, native, native New Yorker |
|
Where did all those yesterdays go |
|
When you still believed |
|
Love could really be like a Broadway show |
|
You are the star |
|
You're a native New Yorker |
|
You should know the score by now |
|
You're a native New Yorker |
|
You should know the score |
|
You should know the score by now |
|
You're a native New Yorker, oh oh oh |
|
(Native, native, native New Yorker) |
|
You're a native New Yorker |
|
Whoa, oh ho ho, you're a native New Yorker |
|
You should know the score |
|
(Native, native, native new Yorker) |
|
You're a native New Yorker |
|
What you waiting for, no one opens the door |
|
(You're a native New Yorker) |
|
For a native, for a native New Yorker |
