歌词
Ooohh New York x2 “噢，纽约”“噢，纽约”
Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes生长在一个作为电影场景而闻名的城镇
Noise was always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean周围都是喧闹声，警笛声，以及险恶的街道
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say “如果我能在这儿立足，我可以在任何地方生存”，这是过来人所说的
Seeing my face in lights or my name on marquees found down on Broadway看到我的脸在聚光灯下出现，或者我的名字显示在百老汇剧院的滚动字幕上
Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams即使它不如看来的美好，但我心中已装了一口袋的梦
Baby, I'm from New York亲爱的，我来自纽约

Some will sleep tonight with a hunger far more than an empty fridge 今晚有些人将带着精神上的饥饿感入睡，这远胜于和肉体产生的饥渴共度长夜
( 此处为意译，直译为“今晚有些人会带着渴望睡觉，远好过和空空如也的冰箱一起”；“hunger”两重意思，既可指身体上的饥饿，也可指精神上的渴望，此处取后者解释，与后文“an empty fridge”所指代的肉体饥饿作对比)

Baby, I'm from New York亲爱的，我来自纽约
