0:14Listen to the sound of the city listen to the sound of the town
0:22New York is the city of cities New York is still wearing the crown
0:29Listen to the sound of the city listen to the people I love
0:36Everyone is speaking your language New York speaks in your native tongue
0:43New York (New York) - we're skatin' down Broadway
0:50At midnight or midday - we do our own thing
0:58New York (New York) - a city with gusto
