Empire State Of Mind lyrics

Jay-Z

Alicia Keys

Yeah

yeah, I'm out that Brooklyn

now I'm down in Tribeca

right next to DeNiro

but I'll be hood forever

I'm the new Sinatra

and since I made it here

I can make it anywhere

yeah, they love me

everywhere

I used to cop in Harlem

all of my Dominicano's

right there up on Broadway

pull me back to

that McDonald's

Tuck into my stashbox

five-sixty State Street

catch me in the kitchen

like the Simmons

whippin'pastry

Cruisin' down 8th Street

off-white Lexus

drivin' so slow

but BK is from Texas

Me, I'm out that Bed-Stuy

home of that boy Biggie

now I live on billboard

and I brought

my boys with me

Say what up to Ty-Ty

still sippin' Mai Tais

sittin' courtside

Knicks and Nets

give me high five

Ni##a, I be spiked-out

I could trip a referee

tell by my attitude

that I'm most definitely from

I'm in New York

concrete jungle

where dreams are made of

there's nothin' 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 York

Catch me at the X with OG

at a Yankee game

s##t, I made the Yankee hat

more famous

than a Yankee can

You should know I bleed blue

but I ain't a Crip though

but I got a gang of ni##as

walkin' with

my clique though

Welcome to the meltin' pot

corners where

we sellin' rock

Afrika Bambaataa s##t

home of the hip-hop

Yellow cab, gypsy cab

dollar cab, holler back

for foreigners it ain't for

they act like they

forgot how to act

Eight million stories

out there in the naked

city, it's a pity

half of y'all won't make it

Me, I got a plug

Special Ed' "I Got It Made"

if Jeezy's payin' LeBron

I'm payin' Dwayne Wade

Three dice Cee-Lo

three card Monty

Labour Day parade

rest in peace Bob Marley

Statue of Liberty

long live the World Trade

long live The King yo

I'm from the empire

state that's

I'm in New York

concrete jungle

where dreams are made of

there's nothin' 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 York

Lights is blinding

girls need blinders

so, they could step

out of bounds quick

the sidelines is

Lined with casualties

who sip to life casually

then gradually

become worse

don't bite the apple, Eve

Caught up in the in-crowd

now you're in style

Anna Wintour gets cold

in Vogue with your skin out

The city of sin

it's a pity on the wind

good girls gone bad

the city's filled with them

Mommy took a bus trip

now she got her bust out

everybody ride her

just like a bus route

Hail Mary to the city

you're a virgin

and Jesus can't save you

life starts

when the church end

Came here for school

graduated to the high life

ball players, rap stars

addicted to the limelight

MDMA got you feelin'

like a champion

this city never sleeps

better slip you an Ambien

I'm in New York

concrete jungle

where dreams are made of

there's nothin' 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 York

One hand in the air

for the big city

street lights, big dreams

all lookin' pretty

No place in the world

that could compare

put your lighters in the air

everybody say yeah, yeah

yeah, yeah

I'm in New York

concrete jungle

where dreams are made of

there's nothin' 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 York...

So happy to have discovered Lucky Voice. We'd never tried karaoke before, but this is so much fun! So many great songs and so easy to use. Love it!

Easy to set up, entertains the little ones by day and the adults by night.
