Halestorm - Empire State of Mind lyrics

Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes Noise was 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 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 meltin' pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger far more than an empty fridge I'm gon' 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 street 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 lookin' pretty No place in the world that can compare Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeaaah, yeaaaah In 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 Now you're in New York!
