Empire State Of Mind (part Ii Broken Down) Lyrics - So You Think You Can Dance

Ooooh, New York! 

Ooooh, New York! 

Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes 

Noise is 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 

Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway 

Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful full of dreams 

Baby I'm 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 

Big lights will inspire you 

Hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork! 

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'ma make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams 

Baby I'm 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 

Big lights will inspire you 

Hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork! 

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 

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! 

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 

Big lights will inspire you 

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork!
