[Verse 1]
[E]One minute I'm[D] in Central Par[E]k[D]
[E]Then I'm dow[D]n

[E]Said, from the [D]Bowery to St [E]Marks[D]
[E]There's a syn[D]copated bea[E]t (alrig[D]ht)

[Pre-chorus 1]
I said, [E]whoo-hoo- [D]whoo- hoo- hoo[E][D]
I'm [E]streetwise,[D]
I can [E]improvise[D]
I said, [E]whoo-hoo- [D]whoo- hoo- hoo[E][D]
I'm [E]street [D]smart,
I've got [E]New York City heart

[Chorus 1]
[C]Why should I wor[G]ry?
[C]Why should I car[Em]e?
[C]I may not hav[G]e a dime
[D]But I got str[Em]eet savoir- fai[C]re
Why should I [G]worry?

[C]It's just be-[G]bopulatio[D]n
And I got [Em]street savoir- [C]faire
(Mm- hmm)

They love me at the Chelsea
They adore me at the Ritz

[D]I got str[Em]eet savoir-faire
[E][D][E][D]
