Lullaby of Broadway Songtext
von Dick Powell

Come on along and listen to
The lullaby of Broadway,
The hip horray and ballyhoo,
The lullaby of Broadway.
The rumble of a subway train,
The rattle of a taxi,
The daffodils who entertain
At Angelo′s and Maxie's.

When a Broadway baby says goodnight,
It′s early in the morning.
Manhattan babies don't say goodnight
Until the dawn.

Goonight baby,
Goodnight,
The milkman's on his way.
Sleep tight, baby,
Sleep tight,
Let′s call it a day.


Come on along and listen to
The lullaby of Broadway,
The hi-de-hi and boop-a-doo,
The lullaby of Broadway.
The band begins to go to town
And everyone goes crazy.
You rock-a-bye your baby round
Till everything gets hazy.
Hush-a-bye, I′ll buy you thing and that
You hear a daddy saying,
And baby goes home to her flat
To sleep all day.

Goonight baby,
Goodnight,
The milkman's on his way.
Sleep tight, baby,
Sleep tight,
Let′s call it a day.

Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway!

Sleep tight, baby,
Sleep tight,
Let's call it a day!
Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway!

Sleep tight, baby,
Sleep tight,
Let′s call it a day.
