Streets Of New York - AOL Broadband Rocks! Live at Webster Hall - December 1, 2003
Let's take it to the street
(New York, New York, New York, New York)
(New York, New York, New York, New York)
(New York, New York, New York, New York)
It's like a jungle out here
So much struggle out here
And my dreams steal my rest
Sleep's the cousin of death
Always feels like a race against father time
In the Streets of New York
All I see (yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
Bullet holes in our people (yеah-yeah, yo, black it's time)
Only crime fills the brain (yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
Feels like I'm goin' insane (yеah-yeah, yo, black it's time)
The revolution has to start, don't waste no time (yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
In the Streets of New York
(New York state of mind)
So rock & roll right now
Let's go!
New York, New York, New York, New York
Get them hands up! (oh)
Let me see 'em right (state of mind)
Get- throw your hands up!
New York City (New York, New York, New York, New York, oh)
I said rock & roll right now!
I said rock & roll! (state of mind)
(New York City) New York, New York, New York, New York
Hey
Let's go! (Oh, Get a dream)
New York City (New York, New York, New York, New York)
Oh! (oh! Let it scream)
Oh, it's like the game
Just ain't the same (yeah-yeah)
Baby, loves them girls with no shame (yeah-yeah, yo, black it's time)
Can't get away (get away, yeay-yeah)
Epidemic plague (plague, yeah-yeah)
Every hood in every state (yeah-yeah, yo, black it's time)
Don't have no reasons 'cause belief is hard to find
In the streets of New York (New York state of mind)
It's da, It's da new move
Everybody now! (New York now)
New York, New York (come on), New York
(Let me see y'all) New York City
(Put yo hands right) oh-oh-oh, (let me see y'all)
New York, New York, New York, New York City
Pretty (we from New York City y'all), New York, New York
New York, New York, New York, New York City
(And pray for the World Trade Center) New York
Oh-oh-oh (and Biggie Smalls and all 'dem)
Say, "Yeah!", New York, New York (Say it!)
Say, "Yeah!" (Say it!)

Livin' just enough (yeah!)
