Dropping Some NYC Lyrics

Come on everybody take a trip with us.
Gonna raise some hell, gonna raise a fuss.
Cost you a dollar if you care to see,
So just belly on up and tell me what'll it be.
I've got a little something that I don't think you've tried.
No need to run, no need to hide.
Just take a little taste and tell me, what do you see?
'Cause tonight we're gonna drop a little NYC.
Dropping some NYC.
Dropping some NYC.
Dropping some NYC.

Having some fun, well, all of us are.
Everyone around you is gonna be a star.
'Cause it's the best and the worst, and it's life out loud.
Don't mind if I preach; don't wanna get too proud.
It's hard to be humble when it's all at your feet,
And someday soon, it's gonna leave the street.
They say the truth shall set you free.
Well you're on parole when you're on NYC.
Dropping some NYC
Dropping some NYC
Dropping some NYC

2, 3, 4...Dropping some NYC
Dropping some NYC.
Dropping some NYC.
Dropping some NYC.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
