New York, New York is everything they say
|
And no place that I'd rather be
|
Where else can you do a half a million things
|
And all at a quarter to three
|
When they play their music, ooh that modern music
|
The like it with a lot of style
|
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
|
That really drives them wild
|
|
CHORUS
|
They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
|
And from what I've seen I believe 'em
|
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
|
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating
|
|
L.A., Hollywood and the Sunset Strip is something everyone should see
|
Neon lights and the pretty, pretty girls all dressed so scantily
|
When they play their music, that hard rock music
|
They like it with a lot of flash
|
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
|
That really kicks 'em in the...
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
D.C., San Antone and the Liberty town, Boston and Baton Rouge
|
Tulsa, Austin, Oklahoma City, Seattle, San Francisco, too
|
Everywhere there's music, real live music, bands with a million styles
|
But it's still that same old rock and roll music that really drives 'em wild
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
In Cleveland
|
Detroit...heart of rock and roll
|
|
