Lyrics

I love to be a New Yorker
I say with pride that I come from the borough of Queens
I love the hustle and bustle
And the change of the seasons, a magical scene

I’m a New Yorker it’s woven into my genes
There’s simply nowhere else where I would rather be
It’s the birthplace of my soul, my heart and my dreams
Full of love, culture and diversity

You think you might understand us
By trying pizza and hanging out by Times Square
That’s not the right way to brand us
We’re so much more than the billboards hovering there

I’m a New Yorker it’s woven into my genes
There’s simply nowhere else where I would rather be
It’s the birthplace of my soul, my heart and my dreams
Full of love, culture and diversity

I’m a New Yorker 8x

New Yorkers have their own toughness
We take no bull and we say what’s on our minds
But don’t mistake it for gruffness
Once you know us you know we can be very kind

I’m a New Yorker it’s woven into my genes
There’s simply nowhere else where I would rather be
It’s the birthplace of my soul, my heart and my dreams
Full of love, culture and diversity

I’m a New Yorker it’s woven into my genes
There’s simply nowhere else where I would rather be
It’s the birthplace of my soul, my heart and my dreams
Full of love, culture and diversity

I’m a New Yorker 8x
