Song by Odyssey<br /><br>

New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh<br>

<br>

Runnin' pretty, New York City girl<br>

Twenty-five, thirty-five<br>

Hello, baby, New York City girl<br>

<br>

You grew up ridin' the subways, running with people<br>

Up in Harlem, down on Broadway<br>

You're no tramp, but you're no lady, talkin' that street talk<br>

You're the heart and soul of New York City<br>

<br>

And love, love is just a passing word<br>

It's the thought that you had in a taxi cab that got left on the curb<br>

When he dropped you off and he stated firm<br>

<br>

Oh, oh, oh [Oh, oh, oh]<br>

You're a native New Yorker<br>

You should know the score by now [You should know by now]<br>

You're a native New Yorker<br>

<br>

New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh<br>

<br>

Music plays, everyone's dancin' closer and closer<br>

Makin' friends and findin' lovers<br>

There you are lost in the shadows, searchin' for someone [Searchin' for<br>

someone]<br>

To set you free from New York City<br>

<br>

And, whoa, where did all those yesterdays go<br>

When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show<br>

You are the star, win the applause<br>

<br>

Oh, oh, oh [Oh, oh, oh]<br>

You're a native New Yorker<br>

No one opens the door<br>

For a native New Yorker<br>

<br>

[Runnin' pretty, New York City girl]<br>

Ooh...ooh...ooh...<br>

Native, native, native New Yorker<br>

<br>

Where did all those yesterdays go<br>

When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show<br>

You are the star<br>

<br>

You're a native New Yorker<br>

You should know the score by now<br>

You're a native New Yorker<br>

<br>

You should know the score, you should know the score by now<br>

You're a native New Yorker, oh, oh, oh<br>

[Native, native, native new Yorker]<br>

You're a native New Yorker<br>

<br>

Whoa, oh, ho, ho, you're a native New Yorker<br>

You should know the score<br>

[Native, native, native new Yorker]<br>

You're a native New Yorker<br>

<br>

What you waitin' for, no one opens the door<br>

[You're a native New Yorker]<br>

For a native, for a native New Yorker<br>

<br>
