Lyrics

[Verse 1]

One minute I'm in Central Park

Then I'm down on Delancey Street

From the Bow'ry to St Marks

There's a syncopated beat

[Verse 2]

Said, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

I'm streetwise

I can improvise

Said, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

I'm street smart

I've got New York City hearts

[Verse 3]

Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

I may not have a dime

But I got street savoire faire

[Verse 4]

Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

It's just bebopopulation

And I got street savoire faire

[Verse 5]

The rhythm of the city

But once you get it down

Then you can own this town

You can wear the crown

[Verse 6]

Why should I worry?

Tell me

Why should I care?

I may not have a dime

But I got street savoire faire

[Verse 7]

Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

It's just bebopopulation

And I got street savoire faire

[Verse 8]

Everything goes

Everything fits

They love me at the Chelsea

They adore me at the Ritz

[Verse 9]

Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

And even when I cross that line

I got street savoire faire
