==1990 Hello Rochester campaign lyrics==
:There's a feeling in the air
:That you can't get anywhere except in Rochester
:I've chased a thousand yesterdays
:And I love the magic ways of Rochester
:From the rolling countryside
:We share the growing pride
:Each time you touch the sky
:From where the waters flow
:To Lake Ontario
:We're all good neighbors passing by
:Makes no difference where I go,
:You're the best hometown I know
:Hello Rochester, hello Rochester!
:News Channel 3 loves you!
