"The Garrick Gaieties" (Rodgers/Hart) 1925

lyrics

VERSE:
Summer journeys to Niagara
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.

CHORUS (1st half):
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.

ADDITIONAL VERSE (Hawkey/Gleizner):
Traveling the state by rail
to sing at every bar and jail;
You'll soon take a chance on a new song and dance.
Bathing in the lights of Broadway
has a funny, little odd way of making new
all that's in you.

CHORUS (2nd half):
And tell me what street
compares with Mott Street in July?
Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by.
The great big city's a wondrous toy
Made for a girl and boy.
We'll turn Manhattan into an aisle of joy!
