Manhattan

Summer journeys to Niag'ra and to other places aggra- vate 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!

It's very fancy on old

Delancy 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 gli-ding by.

The great big city's a wonderous 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 glamour can never spoil

The dreams of a boy and goil

We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy! (from this specific recording)

Guy from Bath England sent me this more complete version:

VERSE Summer journeys to

Niag'ra And to other places aggra- vate 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. CHORUS 1

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?
