Guess what! Summer's arrived
I feel the world's on my side
The Brooklyn Bridge stretches below me
[/9]
A billion souls all dying to know me
/9
Well here I am! Loaded with promise
And knee deep in grace
What I want is here on my face and
I feel like I own the whole damn (place)
Hey Manhattan! Here I am!
Call me star-struck Uncle Sam.
Strolling Fifth Avenue
Just to think Sinatra's been here too
[?]
These myths we can't undo they lie in wait for you
We live them till they're ...
True, Manhattan, doobie doo.
Hey Manhattan doobie doo.
/9
Someday's you've got to get outside
Look there's "The Carlyle"
That's the place where Kennedy stayed,
[/9]
And where were you when he died ?
(Yeah some things are slow to fade.)
/9
There they were - Loaded with promise
Knee deep in fate
When what you want shows on your face
All that's left litters the whole damn (place)
Hey Manhattan! Here I am!
Call it bad luck Uncle Sam.
Scrounging Fifth Avenue
Just to think the poor could live here too
[?]
But what are they to do? These myths belong to you,
We live them till they're ...
True, Manhattan, doobie doo.
Hey Manhattan doobie doo.
