There's A Boat Dat's Leavin' Soon For New York

There's a boat that's leavin', oh, soon for New York

Come with me

That's where we belong, sister

You and me can live that high life in New York

Come with me

There you can't go wrong, sister

I'll buy you the swellest mansion

Up on upper Fifth Avenue

And through Harlem we go struttin'

We go struttin'

And there'll be nothin'

Too good for you

I'll dress you in silks and satin

In the latest Paris style

All the blues you'll forgettin'

You'll be forgettin'

There'll be no frettin'

But smiles

Come along with me, that's the place

Don't be a fool, come along, come along

There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York

Come with me

That's where we belong

Oh sister, that's where we belong

There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York

Come with me

That's where we belong, sister

You and me can live that high life in New York

Come with me

There you can't go wrong, sister

I'll buy you the swellest mansion

Up on upper Fifth Avenue

And through Harlem we go struttin'

We go struttin'

And there'll be nothin'

Too good for you

I'll dress you in silks and satins

In the latest Paris style

All the blues you'll be gettin'

You'll be forgettin'

There'll be no frettin'

Nothin' but smiles, honey

Come along with me, there's the place

Don't be a fool, come along, come along

There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York

Come along with me

That's where we belong

Yeah sister, that's where we belong

Yes, sister, sister
