Manhattan

Intro: Verse Summer journeys to Niag'ra and to other places aggravate all our cares We'll save our fares I've a cozy little flat in what is known as old Manhattan We'll settle down right here in town Melody We'll have Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island, too It's lovely going through the zoo It's very fancy on old Delancy Street, you know The subway charms us so when balmy breezes blow to and fro And tell me what street compares with Mott Sreet in July Sweet push carts gently gliding by The great big city's a wond'rous toy just made for a girl and boy We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy We'll go to Yonkers, where true love conquers in the wilds And starve together, Dear, in Childs' We'll go to Coney and eat baloney on a roll In Central Park we'll stroll where our first kiss we stole, soul to soul And "My Fair Lady" is a terrific show, they say We both may see it close someday The city's clamour can never spoil the dreams of a boy and goil We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
