[Prelude]
(I'm moving to New York)
[Intro]
Turn me up, baby
Black daddy (Yeah!)
I said Black daddy (Yeah!)
[Chorus 1]
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
I'm livin' in New York
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
In the center of the world
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
Wait 'til you see what I do
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
To find somebody like you
[Post-Chorus]
I said me (Me), you (You), N (N), Y (Y)
Why not? (Why not?)
Why not? (Why not?)
Why not? (Why not?)
[Verse 1]
I’m walking my bulldog, baby (Yeah!)
In the middle of Central Park
Takin’ over downtown baby (Yeah!)
Long after it gets dark
Every night is a mystery (Yeah!)
Baby, I just can’t sleep
I gotta stay out all night (Yeah!)
So you can find me
[Chorus 2]
I’m livin’ in New York City (Yeah!)
I’m livin’ in New York (Yeah!)
I’m livin’ in New York City (Yeah!)
In the center of the world (Yeah!)
I’m livin’ in New York City (Yeah!)
And it's livin' in me (Yeah!)
Wait ‘til you see what I do (Yeah!)
When I find somebody like you
[Post-Chorus]
I said me (Me), you (You), N (N), Y (Y)
Why not? (Why not?)
Why not? (Why not?)
Why not? (Why not?)
[Interlude 1]
I said Black daddy (Yeah!)
[Verse 2]
I thought I was livin' (Yeah!)
'Til I woke up to a siren
I thought I was over (Yeah!)
'Til I met these New York soldiers
They keep on workin' (Keep on workin')
They keep on fightin' (Keep on fightin')
America (America)
It's time to wake up (Time to wake up)
[Chorus 3]
'Cause I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
I'm livin' in New York
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
In the center of the world
[Bridge]
I'm livin' in New York City
Where girls are pretty, streets are witty
I'm livin' in New York City
Where everybody's livin' and everybody's winnin'
I'm livin' in New York City
The streets are witty, the girls look pretty
I'm livin' in New York City
And it's, and it's, and it's livin' in me
[Interlude 2]
Good god! (Yeah!)
[Post-Chorus]
I said me (Me), you (You), N (N), Y (Y)
Why not? (Why not?)
Why not? (Why not?)
Woo, yeah
[Interlude 3]
I gotta testify, I gotta testify
Good god! (Yeah!) Testify
Good god (Yeah!)
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
[Alternate Chorus]
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
I'm livin' in New York City (Yeah!)
I'm livin' it up, livin' it up, livin' it up
Good god (Yeah!)
And it's livin' in me (Yeah!)
It's livin' in me (Yeah!)
It's livin' in me, now (Yeah!)
I'm livin' it up, livin' it up
'Cause baby, it's livin in
[Post-Chorus/Outro]
Me (Me), you (You), N (N), Y (Y)
Why not? (Why not?)
Why not? (Why not?)
Why not? (Why not?)
