I'll take 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 glide.
On the promenade.







The great big city is a wondrous toy
Made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
Tell me what street
Compares with Mott Street in July
Sweet pushcarts gently
Glide
Riding by
The great big city is a wondrous toy
Made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
I'll take Manhattan
I'll take Manhattan
I'll take Manhattan

I'll take Manhattan
