Paroles de Manhattan

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!
