There's a Boat Dat's Leavin' Soon for New York |
Bess |
There’s a boat that’s leaving soon for New York |
Come with me |
That’s where we belong, sister |
You and me can live that high life in New York |
Come with me |
There you can’t go wrong, sister |
I’ll buy you the swellest mansion |
Up on upper Fifth Avenue |
And through Harlem we’ll go strutting |
We’ll go a-strutting |
And there’ll be nothing |
Too good for you |
I’ll dress you in silks and satins |
In the latest Paris styles |
All the blues you’ll be forgetting |
You’ll be forgetting |
There’ll be no fretting |
Just nothing 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 leaving soon for New York |
Come with me |
That’s where we belong |
Sister, that’s where we belong |
There’s a boat that’s leaving soon for New York |
Come with me |
That’s where we belong |
Bess! |
That’s where we belong! |
Come on, Bess! |
