Manhattan Songtext
von Tony Bennett
Manhattan Songtext
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 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 boy.
We′ll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy.
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 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 boy.
We′ll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy.
