Album: Still on the Road

Summer journeys to Niag'ra
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!
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!
The great big city's a wondrous toy
Just made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan Into an isle of joy.
