[Live Performance @ Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball with Barclaycard - The O2, London, UK December 10th 2023]br br Lyrics:br br Ooh-ooh-ooh, New Yorkbr Ooh-ooh-ooh, New Yorkbr Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenesbr Noise is always loudbr There are sirens all around and the streets are meanbr If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they saybr Seein' my face in lightsbr Or my name in marquees found down on Broadwaybr Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreamsbr Baby, I'm from New Yorkbr Concrete jungle where dreams are made ofbr There's nothin' you can't dobr Now you're in New Yorkbr These streets will make you feel brand-newbr Big lights will inspire youbr Hear it for New York, New York, New Yorkbr On the avenue, there ain't ever a curfew, ladies work so hardbr Such a meltin' potbr On the corner sellin' rock, preachers pray to Godbr Hail a gypsy cabbr Takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridgebr Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger far more than an empty fridgebr I'ma make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreamsbr Baby, I'm from New Yorkbr Concrete jungle where dreams are made ofbr There's nothin' you can't dobr Now you're in New Yorkbr These streets will make you feel brand-newbr Big lights will inspire youbr Hear it for New York, New York, New Yorkbr One hand in the air for the big citybr Streetlights, big dreams, all lookin' prettybr No place in the world that can comparebr Put your lighters in the air, everybody say, "Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah"br In New Yorkbr Concrete jungle where dreams are made ofbr There's nothin' you can't dobr Now you're in New Yorkbr These streets will make you feel brand-newbr Big lights will inspire youbr Hear it for New York.br br Songwriter(s): Shawn C.
