Brooklyn In My Bones © & (P) 2013 Jeffrey D. Alexander, as administered by Cousin Moe Music Inc./ BMI Words and Music: Jeffrey D. Alexander I come from Brooklyn, We had all kinds of people. Brooklyn has stories to tell. For some it’s our birthplace, The home of our fathers. For some, it’s their liberty bell. Yeah, I come up in Brooklyn. It’s in every step I take. Nothing surprises me. The streets were my classroom, The people, my professors. Brooklyn was my university. Brooklyn in my bones, Brooklyn in my bones. No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones. Brooklyn in my bones, Brooklyn in my bones. No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones. You don’t talk about our mothers. In Brooklyn that’s no joke. (And) When you're from Brooklyn, You might get beat, you don’t get broke. Stoopball, stickball, How many sewers can you hit? Give us a street or sidewalk, We’d make a game of it. Pizza, Nathan’s hot dogs, Knishes and egg creams. Egg rolls and cannolis, The world catered our dreams. Brooklyn in my bones, Brooklyn in my bones. No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones. Brooklyn in my bones, Brooklyn in my bones. No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones, Catholic, Baptist, Hindu or Jew, Whomever you pray to we had some of you. Russian, Italian, Caribbean, Chinese. Immigrants talk different, Their kids speak Brooklynese. We had Brooklyn to live up to, We knew you never quit. We learned how to take a hit, And to find another way. Brooklyn made you fast, And kept you on your toes. You grew eyes behind your head, We knew better than to doze. Brooklyn in my bones. Brooklyn in my bones, No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones. Yeah, I come from Brooklyn. It’s in every breath I take. I’ve left, but I never leave. Brooklyn travels with me, It’ll always be home. No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones. Brooklyn in my bones, Brooklyn in my bones. No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones. Brooklyn in my bones, Brooklyn in my bones. No matter how far I roam, I still have Brooklyn in my bones.
