《The Masters》Summer journeys to Niag'ra and to other places aggra- vate 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! (from this specific recording)
Guy from Bath England sent me this more complete version:
VERSE Summer journeys to
Niag'ra And to other places aggra- vate 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. CHORUS 1
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?
