Lyric:

We'll have Manhattan, The Bronx and Staten Island too.
It's lovely strolling through the Zoo.

It's very fancy on old "Delancy St." 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 & boy.
* We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of Joy !

(Instrument)

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 "South Pacific" is a terrific show they say.
We both may see it close, some day...

The city's buzzard cannot destroy, The Dream of a girl & boy.
* Repeat

* Repeat

@take5t0ky0j -Yes, will have a look. Thankyou Another song I like which also reminds me of 1930's & 40's NY is Bob Hope singing Penthouse Serenade. It's a duet with a woman.
