Lirieke: Alicia Keys. Empire State Of Mind II (Broken Down).
Ooh, New York
Ooh, New York
Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noises 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
Seein' my face in lights
Or my name on 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, oh
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 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
Some will 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, oh
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
One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
No place in the world can compare
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
New York
Concrete jungle where dreams are made, oh
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
Ooh, New York
Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noises 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

Or my name on marquees found down on Broadway
Even if it ain't all it seems

Concrete jungle where dreams are made, oh
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
