Queen of New York City Lyrics

[00:12.09] There's a rhythm to her heart
[00:17.58] And a world inside her head
[00:23.00] She'll tell you from the start
[00:28.73] Boy, you don't know her yet
[00:34.21] She's like a constellation
[00:39.81] Of stars that don't connect
[00:46.08] And she's dancin' on the sidewalk
[00:51.30] Just like the neon signs are spotlights, she says
[00:55.25] "Ain't I the queen of New York City?
[00:59.25] I'll take 'em all down with me
[01:02.05] 'Cause I'm gonna run this town"
[01:06.15] She's got some kind of way about her
[01:10.18] One look and you don't doubt her
[01:12.93] Seeing's believing now
[01:15.82] Don't you believe her now?
[01:22.43] She says, "Man, I'm gonna leave this town
[01:28.98] 'Cause I got wings under my feet"
[01:34.73] Then she tells you she gets vertigo
[01:40.20] When she goes above 14th Street
[01:46.62] And then she smiles at you the way that people smile
[01:52.63] When they're trying not to cry, and she says
[01:55.98] "Ain't I the queen of New York City?
[01:59.97] I'll drag 'em all down with me
[02:02.85] 'Cause I'm gonna run this town"
[02:06.89] She's got some kind of way about her
[02:10.83] One look and you don't doubt her
[02:13.67] Seeing's believing now
[02:16.46] Don't you believe her now?
[02:20.48]
[02:28.96] "Well, ain't I the queen of New York City?
[02:33.13] I'll take 'em all down with me
[02:35.75] 'Cause I'm gonna run this town"
[02:39.94] "Hey, I'm the queen of New York City
[02:44.00] I'll drag 'em all down with me
[02:46.96] 'Cause I'm gonna run this town" (ayy)
[02:51.07] She's got some kind of way about her
[02:55.01] One look and you don't doubt her
[02:57.98] Seeing's believing now
[03:00.55] Don't you believe her now?
[03:03.51] (Don't you believe her now?)
[03:05.73] Yeah, don't you believe her now?
[03:08.91] (Don't you believe her now?)
[03:11.57] Hell, I believe her now, yeah
[03:14.49] (Don't you believe her now?)
[03:17.39] Queen of New York City
[03:19.80]
