Manhattan lyrics

Summer journeys to Niagra
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!

We`ll have Manhattan
the Bronx and Staten Island too.
It`s lovely going through the zoo!

(Sing to me, Bette, come on)

It`s very fancy
on old Delancy street you know. (I know)
The subway charms us so
When balmy breezes blow
To and fro.

I`d like to take a
Sail on Jamaica Bay with you,
And fair Canarsie`s Lakes we`ll view.

The city`s bustle cannot destroy
Oooh, the dreams of a girl and boy
We`ll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy.

Ooh, yeah

And tell me what street
compares with Mott Street in July?
Sweet pushcarts gently gli-ding by.

The great big city`s a wonderous toy
Ooh, just made for a girl and boy.
We`ll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy!
We`ll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy!
