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>
