Village People - Sound Of The City (David London) Lyrics

Listen to the sound of the city, listen to the sound of the town

New York is the city of cities, New York is still wearing the crown

Listen to the sound of the city, listen to the people I love

Everyone is speaking your language, New York speaks in your native tongue



New York (New York) - we're skatin' down Broadway

At midnight or midday - we do our own thing

New York (New York) - a city with gusto

New York is a big show - it's what's happening



Listen to the sound of the city, listen to the cars on the street

New York is the fans of the Yankees, New York is a cop on the beat

Listen to the sound of the city, listen to the steeple bells chime

New York is a city of magic, New York is a hip state of mind



New York (New York) - the city of night life

The city of bright lights - we're doin' our part

New York (New York) - the city of fashion

The city of passion - this town has a heart



Listen to the sound of the city, New York is the pulse of the world

New York is the mecca that's Broadway, New York is the style on the girl

Listen to the sound of the city, listen to the sound of my town

You can take a ride on the tramway, hold your breath while your comin' down



New York (New York), perpetual motion

From ocean to ocean - there's nothing compares

New York (New York) - the parks and the playgrounds

New York is the sweet sound - of children at play



Listen to the sound of the city, New York after dark is alive

Uptown or the (?) of Harlem, New York is a city with pride

Listen to the sound of the city, New York is both future and past

New York is the city of music, New York is the city with class



Listen to the sound of the city, Listen to the sound of the town

New York is the city of cities, New York is still wearing the crown

Listen to the sound of the city, listen to the people I love

Everyone is speaking your language, New York speaks in your native tongue
