Lyrics: There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York Come with me, that's where we belong sister You an' me Kin live that high life in New York Come with me, there we can't go wrong sister I'll buy you the swellest mansion Up on upper Fifth Avenue An' thru Harlem we'll go struttin' We'll go a struttin' An' there'll be nuttin' Too good for you I'll dress up in silks and satins In the latest Paris styles And de blues you'll be forgettin' You'll be forgettin' There'll be no frettin' Just nothin' but smiles Come along with me, that's the place Don't be a fool. Come along, come along There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York Come with me, that's where we belong, sister That's where we belong |
