Summer journeys
To niagara
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
Through the zoo
It's very fancy
On old delancey street you know
The subway charms us so
And the 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 boy
We'll turn manhattan
Into an isle of joy
We'll have manhattan
The bronx and staten island too
We'll try to cross fifth avenue
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 solftly fercifict
Is a terrific show they say
I hope we'll see close
Someday
The city's clamor can not destroy
The dreams of a girl and boy
We'll turn manhattan
Into an isle of joy
The great big city's a wonderous toy
Just made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy
