| You know I’m from New York
|
| And they say we got a lot of attitude here
|
| That we always got something to say
|
| We think we’re better than everybody
|
| You know what?
|
| You damn right
|
| You can tell I’m too New York
|
| By the way I move
|
| How I walk
|
| You can tell I’m too New York
|
| By the things I say
|
| How I talk
|
| I don’t know what to do
|
| ‘Cause I guess I’m still too New York for you
|
| Get out my way, give me some room
|
| I was born with a silver spoon
|
| In my mouth, there’s no doubt
|
| New York City’s what it’s all about
|
| Leader in music, best in fashion
|
| Broadway lights are a main attraction
|
| Got a reason to be braggin
|
| Got a dream, well make it happen
|
| Got the best places you could eat
|
| Might see Jay-Z walkin down the street
|
| Still in the city that doesn’t sleep
|
| Come here once you won’t wanna leave
|
| See some things you won’t believe
|
| Still got more tricks up our sleeve
|
| After all, this is New York, New York
|
| You can tell I’m too New York
|
| By the way I move
|
| How I walk
|
| You can tell I’m too New York
|
| By the things I say
|
| How I talk
|
| I don’t know what to do |
| ‘Cause I guess I’m still too New York for you
|
| No matter the topic, New York got it
|
| Took it, flipped it, made it hotter
|
| Talkin' bout bars, nothing like ours
|
| Maritime Hotel, drink with the stars
|
| Talkin' bout clubs, got the best drugs
|
| Dance all night to the hottest dubs
|
| Talkin bout liquor, gave you vigor
|
| Usin' Red Bull as a mixer
|
| Talkin bout sports, take no shorts
|
| Knicks and Giants need I say more
|
| Hotels? |
| Soho Grand
|
| If you from outta town then you don’t understand
|
| Talkin' bout fame, started the game
|
| The whole entire world knows your whole entire name
|
| After all, this is New York, New York
|
| You can tell I’m too New York
|
| By the way I move
|
| How I walk
|
| You can tell I’m too New York
|
| By the things I say
|

|
| I don’t know what to do
|
| ‘Cause I guess I’m still too New York for you
|
| We get bored, we set trends
|
| Ahead of y’all in every sense
|
| You count us out, start to doubt
|
| We bring you something underground
|
| I’m truly proud where I’m from
|
| Brooklyn, Queens, Harlem, WHAT
|
| You can hate all you like
|
| Make no mistake, you’re behind |
| New York, New York
|
| Hoo!
|
| You can tell I’m too New York
|
| By the way I move
|
| How I walk
