[Verse 1]
One Minute I'm In Central Park.
Then, I'm Down On Delancey Street.
Said, From The Bow'ry To St Mark's.
There's A Syncopated Beat. Right.

[Pre-Chorus]
I Said, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo.
I'm Streetwise.
I Can Improvise.
I Said, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo.
I'm Streetsmart.
I've Got New York City Heart.

[Chorus]
Why Should I Worry?
Why Should I Care?
I May Not Have A Dime.
But I Got Street Savoir Faire.
Why Should I Worry?
Why Should I Care?
It's Just Be-bopulation.
And I Got Street Savoir Faire.

[Verse 2]
The Rhythm Of The City.
But Once You Get It Down.
Said, Then You Can Own This Town.
You Can Wear The Crown!

[Chorus]
Why Should I Worry? Tell Me.
Why Should I Care?
I Said, I May Not Have A Dime. Oh!
But I Got Street Savoir Faire.
Why Should I Worry?
Why Should I Care?
It's Just Doo-wopulation.
And I Got Street Savoir Faire.

[Bridge]
Ev'rything Goes.
Ev'rything Fits.
They Love Me At The Chelsea!
They Adore Me At The Ritz!

[Chorus]
Why Should I Worry?
Why Should I Care?
And Even When I Cross That Line.
I Got Street Savoir Faire.

[Fading]
I Said, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo.
I Said, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo.
Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo, Whoo.
