Manhattan

(richard rodgers/lorentz hart)

Well have manhattan
The bronx and staten island too
Its lovely going through the zoo

Its very fancy
On old delancey street, you know
The subway charmes us so
When balmy breezes blow
To and fro

And tell me what street
Compares with mott street in july
Sweet push carts gently gliding by

The great big citys a wondrous toy
Just made for a girl and boy
Well turn manhattan into an isle of joy

Well go to yonkers
Where true love conquers in the wilds
And starve together, dear in childs

Well go to coney
And eat bologny on a roll
In central park, well stroll
Where our first kiss we stole
Soul to soul

And tell me what street
Compares with mott street in july
Sweet push carts gently gliding by

The great big citys a wondrous toy
Just made for a girl and boy
Well turn manhattan into an isle of joy
