Manhattan Songtext
von Steve Tyrell

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

It′s very fancy
On old Delancey Street, you know
The subway charms us so
When balmy breezes blow
To and fro

I'd like to take a
Sail on Jamaica Bay with you,
And fair Canarsie's Lakes we′ll view


The city′s bustle cannot destroy
The dreams of a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy

And tell me what street
Compares with Mott Street in July?
Sweet pushcarts gently gli--ding 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

Into an isle of joy
We′ll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
