Manhattan

Summer journeys to Niagara and to other places

Aggravate all our cares, we'll save our fares

I've a cozy little flat what is known as old Manhattan

We'll settle down right here in town

We'll have Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island too

It's lovely going through the zoo

It's very fancy on old Delancey Street, you know

The subway charms us so, when balmy breezes blow to and fro

And tell me what street compares with Mott Street in July?

Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by

The great big city's a wondrous 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 whiles

And starve together, dear, in Chiles

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 some day

The city's glamor can never spoil the dreams of a boy and girl

We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
