yeah
Yeah I'm out that Brooklyn
Now I'm down in Tribeca
Right next to DeNiro
But I'll be hood forever
I'm the new Sinatra
And since I made it here
I can make it anywhere
Yeah they love me everywhere
I used to cop in Harlem
All of my Dominicanos
Right there off of Broadway
Brought me back to
that McDonalds
Took it to my stash spot
560 State Street
Catch me in the kitchen like
Simmons whipping Pastry
Cruising down 8th street
Off white Lexus
Driving so slow
but BK it's from Texas
Me I'm out that BedStuy
Home of that boy Biggie
now I live on Billboard
and I brought my
boys with me
Say what up to Ta ta
Still sipping Mai Tais
Sitting courtside
Knicks and Nets
give me high 5
Nga I be Spiked out
I could trip a referee
tell by my attitude that
I'm MOST DEFINITELY 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
the lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York
New York New York
I made you hot n gga
Catch me at the X with
OG at a Yankee game

hat more famous
than a Yankee can

I bleed Blue
but I ain't a crip tho
but I got a gang of
n ggas walking with my
clique though
welcome to the melting pot
corners where we
selling rocks
Afrika bambaataa sh t
home of the hip hop
yellow cab gypsy cab
dollar cab holla back

fitted act like they
forgot how to act
8 million stories out
there and they're naked
city it's a pity half
of y'all won't make it

and I got it made
If Jeezy's payin LeBron

In 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
the lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for
New York New York New York
Lights is blinding
girls need blinders
so they can step out
of bounds quick
the side lines is blind
with casualties
who sip the lite casually
then gradually become worse
don't bite the apple Eve
caught up in the in crowd
now you're in style
and in the winter
gets cold en vogue
with your skin out
the city of sin is a
pity on a whim
good girls gone bad
the city's filled with them
Mommy took a bus trip and
now she got her bust out
everybody ride her
just like a bus route
Hail Mary to the
city your a Virgin
and Jesus can't save you life
starts when the church ends
came here for school
graduated to the high life
ball players rap stars
addicted to the limelight
MDMA got you feeling
like a champion
the city never sleeps
better slip you a Ambien
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
the lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for
New York New York New York
One hand in the air
for the big city
Street lights
big dreams all looking pretty
no place in the World
that can compare
Put your lighters in the air
everybody say yeaaahh
come on come
yeah
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
the lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York
New York New York
