| The Biltmore garage wants a grand
|
| But we ain’t got a grand on hand.
|
| And they now got a lock on the door
|
| To the gym at P. S. 84.
|
| There’s the stock room behind the McCloskey’s bar.
|
| But Mrs. McCloskey ain’t a good scout.
|
| And things being how they are
|
| The back of the police station is out!
|
| So the Biltmore garage is the spot.
|
| But the one thousand bucks we ain’t got.
|
| Why it’s good old reliable Nathan!
|
| Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Detroit!
|
| If you’re looking for action, his firm is the spot.
|
| Even when the heat is on, it’s never too hot.
|
| Not for good old reliable Nathan!
|
| Where it’s always just a short walk
|
| To the oldest established, permanent floating,
|
| Crap game in New York
|
| There are well-heeled shooters everywhere, everywhere
|
| There are well-heeled shooters everywhere.
|
| And an awful lot of lettuce
|
| For the fella who can get us there.
|
| If we only had a lousy little grand
|
| We could be a millionaire!
|
| That’s good old reliable Nathan!
|
| Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Detroit!
|
| If the size of your bundle you want to increase
|
| He’ll arrange that you go broke in quiet and peace
|
| In a hideout provided by Nathan
|
| Where there are no neighbors to squawk.
|
| It’s the oldest established permanent floating
|
| Crap game in New York.
|
| Where’s the action? |
| Where’s the game?
|
| Gotta have the game
|
| Of we’ll die from shame.
|
| It’s the oldest established, permanent floating
|
| Crap game in New York! |
