The elevated train by my window
Doesn't faze me anymore
The rattling screams don't disrupt my dreams
It's a lullaby, in its way
The elevated train drives everyone insane
But I don't mind, oh no
When I bring back boys
They can't tolerate the noise
And that's okay, 'cause I never let them stay
And one day
I'm hoppin' that elevated train and I'm riding away!
Yeah!
It won't be long now!

The boys around the way holler
At me when I'm walking down the street
Their machismo pride doesn't break my stride
It's a compliment, so they say
The boys around the way holler
At me every day but I don't mind, oh no, no
If I'm in the mood, it will not be with some dude
Who is whistling 'cause he has nothing to say
Or who's honking at me from his Chevrolet!
One day I'm hoppin' in a limousine
And I'm driving away!
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
It won't be long now

Oh snap!
Who's that?
Don't touch me, I'm too hot! Yes!
¿Qué pasó? Here I go!
So dope!
¡Y tú lo sabe'!
No pare
¡Sigue, sigue!
Did you see me?
Freaky freak it!

What a way to begin the weekend
Sonny, anything you want is free, man!
And my dearly beloved Dominican Republic
I haven't forgotten you!
Gonna see this honey, make a little money
And one day I'll hop Jet Blue!
But until that fateful day, I'm grateful
I got a destination

I'm runnin' to make it home
And home's what Vanessa's runnin' away from!
I'm runnin' to make it home
And home's what Vanessa's runnin' away from

The neighborhood salon
Is the place I am working for the moment
As I cut their hair, ladies talk and share
Every day, who's doin' who and why

The neighborhood salon
Doesn't pay me what I wanna be making 
But I don't mind
As I sweep the curb
I can hear those turbo engines
Blazing a trail through the sky
I look up and think about the years gone by
One day, I'm walkin' to JFK and I'm gonna fly!
It won't be long now!
Any day
