Old New York Lyrics

New York City
The money sucked it dry
Pull the c**ture from out the streets
It's all so gentrified
Alphabet city or down on 42nd street
Or the Lower East Side
There was violence in the streets
The greatest city of them all
But it just don't feel the same
I miss the old New York
The tallest buildings in the world
But it just don't look the same
I miss the old New York
The Bowery slums
Turned into fashion boutiques
Where's all the gangs
Drug dealers and the freaks
The Big Apple has lost its taste
10 million people trying just to survive
This f****** urban waste

[Chorus]
The old graffiti trains
Can't see out the window
Gotta watch your back
Or you might get jacked

[Chorus]
