Manhattan Lyrics

The song Manhattan is performed by Blossom Dearie in the album named Once Upon a Summertime in the year 1992 .



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

gliding by

The great big city's 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

gliding by

The great big city's a wondrous toy

Made for a girl and boy

We'll turn Manhattan

into an isle of joy

I'll take Manhattan

I'll take Manhattan
