[00:07.87]The elevated train by my window
[00:10.18]Doesn’t faze me anymore
[00:15.21]The rattling screams don’t disrupt my dreams
[00:18.66]It’s a lullaby, in its way
[00:22.53]The elevated train drives everyone insane
[00:25.98]But I don’t mind, oh no
[00:30.20]When I bring back boys they can’t tolerate the noise
[00:33.85]And that’s okay, 'cause I never let them stay
[00:37.34]And one day, I’m hoppin’ that elevated train and I’m riding away!
[00:46.28]It won’t be long now!
[00:51.16]The boys around the way holler at me when I’m walking down the street
[00:58.50]Their machismo pride doesn’t break my stride—
[01:01.83]It’s a compliment, so they say
[01:05.43]The boys around the way holler at me every day but I don’t mind, oh no
[01:13.70]If I’m in the mood, it will not be with some dude
[01:16.74]Who is whistling 'cause he has nothing to say
[01:20.53]Or who’s honking at me from his Chevrolet!
[01:23.82]And one day… I’m hoppin’ in a limousine and I’m driving away!
[01:32.22]It won’t be long now!
[01:36.10]Ay, Usnavi, help! SOS!
[01:38.96]Good morning, Vanessa!
[01:43.22]If it isn’t the loveliest girl in the place...
[01:48.10]You’ve got some schmutz on your face
[01:54.22]Good morning!
[01:55.70]Good morning!
[01:59.98]Vanessa!
[02:03.47]Vanessa!
[02:07.28]Vanessa!
[02:11.41]VANESSSSSAAAAAA! I’m thirsty, co?o!
[02:16.13]Can I get a Pepsi and some packing tape?
[02:18.34]Uh, my cousin over there with his tongue hanging out, has been meaning to ask you…
[02:23.61]Yes?
[02:24.37]What a lady such as yourself might be doing tonight?
[02:29.16]Does your cousin dance?
[02:33.90]Like a drunk Chita Rivera.?
[02:35.57]Okay… After Nina’s dinner, we can hit a few clubs and check out the fireworks…
[02:44.90]Oh snap! Who’s that?
[02:45.65]Don’t touch me, I’m too hot! Yes!
[02:47.56]Qué pasó? Here I go!
[02:49.24]So dope! Y tu lo sabes!
[02:51.50]No pare
[02:51.69]Sigue sigue!
[02:52.92]Did you see me?
[02:53.62]Freaky freakit!
[02:54.90]What a way to begin the weekend
[02:56.44]Sonny, anything you want is free, man!
[02:58.37]And my dearly beloved Dominican Republic
[03:00.86]I haven’t forgotten
[03:01.54]You!
[03:01.96]Gonna see this honey, make a little money
[03:04.75]And one day I’ll hop Jet
[03:05.44]Blue!
[03:05.91]But until that fateful day, I’m grateful
[03:07.57]I got a destination
[03:09.99]I’m runnin’ to make it home
[03:11.36]And home’s what Vanessa’s runnin’ away from!
[03:13.86]I’m runnin’ to make it home
[03:15.38]And home’s what Vanessa’s runnin’ away from…
[03:18.13]The neighborhood salon is the place I am working for the moment
[03:26.78]As I cut their hair, ladies talk and share—
[03:31.29]Every day, who’s doin' who and why...
[03:36.38]The neighborhood salon doesn’t pay me what I wanna be making but I don’t mind
[03:46.48]As I sweep the curb I can hear those turbo engines blazing a trail through the sky
[03:57.20]I look up and think about the years gone by
[04:01.87]But one day—I’m walkin’ to JFK and I’m gonna fly!
[04:14.44]It won’t be long now!
[04:20.20]Any day...
