Why Should I Worry?

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



Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

I'm streetwise, I can improvise

Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo

I'm streetsmart, I've got New York City heart



Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

I may not have a dime

But I got street savoire faire



Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

It's just bebopulation

And I got street saviore faire



The rhythm of the city

But once you get it down

Then you can own this town

You can wear the crown



Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

I may not have a dime

But I got street savoire faire



Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

It's just bebopulation

And I got street saviore faire



Ev'rything goes

Ev'rything fits

They love me at the Chelsea

They adore me at the Ritz



Why should I worry?

Why should I care?

And even when I cross that line

I got street savoire faire
