We'll take Manhattan,
The Bronx and

Staten Island, too
It's lovely going
Through the zoo
Well, 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
Sweet pushcarts
Gently gliding by
The great big city's
A wondrous toy

Just made for
A girl and bay
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy
We'll go to Yonkers
Where true love

Conquers in the wilds
And starve together,
Dear, in Childs'
Mmm, we'll go to Coney
Andeatbdoney

On a roll
In Central Park
We'll stroll

Where first a kiss
We stole, soul to soul
And for a high fizz,
We'll go to Les Miz, say

We'll hope it closes,
Someday
The city's clamor
Can never spoil

The dreams of
A boy and goil
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy
The city's bustle cannot,
No, it cannot

Destroy the dreams
Of a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy...
